Don't say that you do
If you know that you don't
Don't say that you will
If you know that you won't
It's simply common sense
When everybody's scared of consequence
It's hard to keep your head
When all around the lights have turned to red
And try as you may oh you can't keep the wolves at bay
Everyone wants to discover
The undiscovered
And no one's willing to commit themselves unless their own backs are covered
It's hard to make a move
When everyone is scared that they might lose
It's hard to keep your head
When all around the lights have changed to red
And try as you may oh you can't keep the wolves at bay
You can't keep the wolves at bay
Oh what a difference a decade makes
It's easy to tell between fools and lies
All won't be lost no
Think, and put out this fire
It's simply common sense
When everybody's scared of consequence
It's hard to keep your head
When all around the lights have changed to red
And try as you may oh you can't keep the wolves at bay
You can't keep the wolves at bay
Despite what you say
You can't keep the wolves at bay
