The boy who cried wolf was such a fool
his little mind games were no match for a treacherous duel
He toyed with the strings of the people that cared
but no one was left when the boy was truly scared
After lies had been spun into a marvelous tangle of deceit
The boy had reached his demise with the wolf he did meet
the creature bared his fangs as they gleamed in the night
and concurred such a colossal and immortal fright
The boy begged for mercy and a chance to live
but the wolf had no more sympathy to give
As the jaws began to pierce the skin
the boy cried out just once again
Oh, to no avail did help come his way
and on the ground his dead body did lay
The people remember this tragedy with tears
because lying can transform your deepest of fears.
