The Media Who Cried Wolf
I have listened to your stories
You're very good at what you do
The fear you've kept inside our heads
With all your doom and gloom
They say no news is good news
To leave it out you think is best
Plus you can't be bothered
With the little thing that they call facts
This has gone on so long you see no wrong
In how you spread the news
Well time is up Mr. and Mrs. Media
You're like the little boy who cried wolf
You've lead us on for so long
Some of us are starting to see
That in the wake of what you say
It's mostly make believe
You've fooled us once, fooled us twice
So why not try a few more times
It's monkey see, monkey do
As these blind monkey's follow you
You think a noble fight is being fought
But it's more like bought and sold
Where you'll go down in history
As the media who cried wolf
So you can scream the sky is falling
Or the Big Bad Wolf is at the door
What's the word they say...oh yea "FAKE"
As we don't believe you anymore...
