Red Riding Hood The Truth Pt 1?


A story I’m to tell and this is the one
So just you settle down and it’s begun
This tale about a wolf is to right a wrong
To set the record straight this is my song
The truth behind those lies you’ve heard
Because to slander the wolf is quite absurd
That little minx Red Riding Hood is bad
You doubt me, just listen you’ve been had

Why would she be nicknamed as a hood?
Do you truly believe that she was good?
Don’t you know that perfidy is her name?
And treachery is her very favourite game
Why was she in the wood that one day?
It wasn’t for her old granny that I will say
Now I’ll reveal the true story to all of you
A tale of misfortune and deception too

That minx Red was going out on a date
Being her, she was as usual, running late
She simply couldn’t get her timing right
Late she is and wanting to avoid any fight
She takes a shortcut through the old wood
Danger? Yes but she didn’t do as she should
Anyone else would have thought twice
She didn’t but then I said she wasn’t nice

Marsha




Take back the hope you gave,- I claim
Only a memory of the same
Robert Browning

Nice twist on the story...I liked the one that Sam the Sham and the Pharoah's did. "Hey there little red riding hood you sure are looking good...you're everything a big bad wolf could want."...James
