Lyrics Never Go into the Woods - The Cog is Dead

Never Go into the Woods

Oh, my dear Olivia,
you're young and you have much to learn
and I will do my very best
to teach you about the world.
When you're inside the house, my dear
you'll never have a thing to fear
but waiting just outside are things
so scary your hair will curl!
If you go out beyond those trees
your palms will sweat, you'd knock your knees!
The creatures you encounter there
would gobble you up for good!
There's dangers lurking just outside
but no need to be terrified,
this simple advice can be applied:
NEVER GO INTO THE WOODS!
Wolves and bears
will eat you there!
They'll drag you to their den!
Please, my dear
won't you stay in here?
Or you'll never be seen again
NEVER SEEN AGAIN!
Please, my dear Olivia,
I know that you are curious
and even though you're older now,
I don't think you're prepared
I'll teach you methods of defense,
some hunting skills and common sense,
but still, I feel it would be best
if you don't even dare
It's perfectly normal to feel trapped,
a life indoors can leave you sapped
but please know my advice is apt,
you'll stay in here safe, as you should.
I only insist because I care,
disaster's lurking everywhere,
and losing you I just couldn't bear,
so...
NEVER GO INTO THE WOODS!
Wolves and bears
will eat you there!
They'll drag you to their den!
Please, my dear
won't you stay in here?
Or you'll never be seen again
NEVER SEEN AGAIN!
Father, let me go my way!
Let me face it, come what may!
It's my choice, so let me go!
TRAVELING BOLDLY OFF INTO THE DANGERS UNKNOWN!
(two, three, four)
Wolves and bears
will fear you there!
So fight!
Make sure you win!
Go, my dear!
Don't forget your spear!
Be brave till we meet again
Till we meet again.
