shrill siren eye rolls 
           no one heeds
      the car who cries wolf

Okay I admit, I over thinked it, I was reading shrill siren, like a monsterous beast, then I didn't get where the car who cries wolf. then I realized you were talking about a car alarm and how people ignore the sound of it. Much applause, Your words played a vivid game, Well done on your win David :)
