about

"The Wolf is at the Door" is my adaption of the Three Littles Piggies, and is ultimately about ignoring danger that is right at hand by trying to rationalize it, or negotiate with it.

lyrics

Lyrics:

The wolf is at the door, he waits for you to let him in.
All he wants is more and more, tell me why are you still feeding him?
Bloodshot eyes and gnashing teeth, the wolf survives by slashing sheep.
The game he wants to play... will kill you anyway.

Run little piggy, as we have so much fun.
The game we are playing needs more ham to be won...
Run piggy run.

The Wolf is at the door.
The Wolf is at the door.

The Wolf is at the door, say yes to what he's offering...
He'll never ask for more, instead you'll give up everything..

Run little piggy, as we have so much fun.
The game we are playing needs more ham on the run...
Run piggy run.
Run piggy run.
Run piggy run.

You may hope that I will tire, of our happy little game.
You may think that I will let you be if you only change my name.
You can try to understand me,
You can reckon with my pain.
You can tell me that you are sorry,
But I will always be the same.

You can change the way you treat me,
You can give me what YOU think I want.
You can hide until you think I'm gone
But I will never leave this spot.

I am the Wolf that hates you,
I am the Wolf that doesn't care.
And what you think,
And what you feel,
and what you might believe
Doesn't matter at all to me.

I am the Wolf outside the door.
I am the Wolf.

Run little piggy, as we have so much fun.
The game we are playing needs more ham to be won...
Run little piggy, as we have so much fun.
The game we are playing needs more ham on the run...

Run piggy run.
The Wolf is at the door.
Run piggy run.
The Wolf is at the door.
The Wolf is at the door.
The Wolf is at the door.
