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...
