Cry Wolf

Cry Wolf - Mark Seymour

Everything you need had been granted

Circumstances beyond your control

All the precious seed that you planted

It's everywhere but it's too hot to hold

I'm going back to the place where you landed

I am a pilgrim come in from the cold

You only did what your conscience demanded

You spun me out but I came when you called

You said "It's only a game

You said I'm only looking for someone to blame"

Oh yeh

Everybody knows

You don't have to explain because it shows

I heard you cry wolf too many times

I know how it feels

It's just how it goes

The deadly avalanche that you started

Rolling thunder of wasted applause

All your ships have gone down or departed

Sacrificed in the name of the cause

I'm not the kind who can show you

But I'm beginning to know you

Everybody knows

You don't have to explain because it shows

I heard you cry wolf too many times

I know how it feels

I know how it goes

Ba ba ba

Everybody knows

You don't have to explain because it shows

I heard you cry wolf too many times

I know how it feels

It's just how it goes

Everybody knows

You don't have to explain because it shows

I heard you cry wolf too many times

I know how it feels

It's just how it goes

I know how it feels

It's just how it goes

Just how it goes

Ba ba ba
