I'm Little Red Riding Hood
My grandma was great
She sang me to sleep
Took me strolling at the lake
Together we watched the ships

I'm Little Red Riding Hood
One day she fell ill
But a soup would please her
I walked over the hills
After the meal, she would fell better

I'm Little Red Riding Hood
I'm finally here
You didn't look so well
With pointy ears
Those sharp teeth, I could tell

I'm Little Red Riding Hood
Grandma was gone
It was the wolf
He had won
And cooked her on the stove

I'm Little Red Riding Hood
Looking down on the beast
That I've slaughtered
Grandma's not a feast
If only I'd came sooner

I'm Little Red Riding Hood
Furry creatures on all four
They are all foes
These rampant carnivores
And their filthy paws

I'm Little Red Riding Hood
Was that a wolf or a puppy
That I've shot dead
My hand are bloody
Because of doubt in my head

I'm Little Red Riding Hood
In my eyes they're all same
I raised my gun against on everyone
Have I gone insane
I asked the setting sun

I'm Little Red Riding Hood
Just a girl, young and scared
And my hood soaked in blood
My past guilts, could I bear
As my anger and tears turned to flood
