Shakey Graves Big Bad Wolf Lyrics
Big Bad Wolf by Shakey Graves
I be the church, you be the people
Both are a necessary evil
Can you take a look at me and say
"Take my hand, this is the only way"
We've both heard it all before
Oh but I feel something happening again
Hey coach, I'm ready, put me in
I hear God's a good imaginary friend
Hey coach, he's ready, put him in
Put him on the shelf, put him in a magazine
Put him in the corner, put him on the silver screen
I never sleep, but when I do I never dream
I never worry 'bout the news, I never read
I like to think I am his favorite son
But the truth is I am just someone who's hungry
Let me eat
Wet-blanket bottom-feeder with a gun, bang-bang
I'm hungry, let me in
Now that going out is all the rage
I guess I'd rather burn than fade
Because we've heard it all before
Are you a danger to yourself?
I'm hungry, let me in
Oh is there nobody in it for their health?
Knock knock, I'm hungry let me in
Would you catch me if I fell
Knock knock, I'm hungry let me in
Straight to the bottom of the wishing well
I'm hungry, let me in
Knock knock (I'm hungry, let me in)
Knock knock (I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (Knock knock, who's there? I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (I'm hungry, let me in, I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (I'm hungry, let me in, I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (Knock knock)
Both are a necessary evil
Can you take a look at me and say
"Take my hand, this is the only way"
We've both heard it all before
Oh but I feel something happening again
Hey coach, I'm ready, put me in
I hear God's a good imaginary friend
Hey coach, he's ready, put him in
Put him on the shelf, put him in a magazine
Put him in the corner, put him on the silver screen
I never sleep, but when I do I never dream
I never worry 'bout the news, I never read
I like to think I am his favorite son
But the truth is I am just someone who's hungry
Let me eat
Wet-blanket bottom-feeder with a gun, bang-bang
I'm hungry, let me in
Now that going out is all the rage
I guess I'd rather burn than fade
Because we've heard it all before
Are you a danger to yourself?
I'm hungry, let me in
Oh is there nobody in it for their health?
Knock knock, I'm hungry let me in
Would you catch me if I fell
Knock knock, I'm hungry let me in
Straight to the bottom of the wishing well
I'm hungry, let me in
Knock knock (I'm hungry, let me in)
Knock knock (I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (Knock knock, who's there? I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (I'm hungry, let me in, I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (I'm hungry, let me in, I'm hungry, let me in)
Hey, coach (Knock knock)
