You couldn't wait for answers
You just had to try those wings
And all your happy-ever-afters
They didn't mean a thingSo I'm not gonna try at all
To keep you from the flame
Just remember not to call my nameWhen you cry wolf
Once too often
You cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
You cry wolf
I won't hear you anymoreIf you start to stumble
If you start to crack
If you're feeling humble
Don't look backWhen you cry wolf
Once too often
You cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
You cry wolf
I won't hear you anymoreYou can try but you can't get me into the fire
'Cause I'm all out of sympathy
And, baby, I can't walk this wireFind yourself somebody new
To catch you when you fall
'Cause I got just one thing to say to you
And, baby, that's allWhen you cry wolf
Once too often
You cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'You cry wolf
I won't hear you
You cry wolf
Well, once too oftenYou cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
You cry wolf
I won't see youSo you cry wolf
Once too often
Cry wolf
On no, I won't come knockin'If you cry wolf
I won't see you
'Cause you cried wolf
