Isn't it funny How they call you big? When your limbs were shaking And your belly's shrunk All bones from muzzle to tail. Perhaps the cheerful girl Wasn't so little for a kid Under that red hood. Don't you get mad When people call you bad? All you ever did was do The sickly grandma a favor. The girl could've done worse Disobeying the elder's order And nibbling on half the food While prancing in the woods. Don't you get sad When people call you wolf? Though you looked more like A stray dog barging at the hut's door And a bear after swallowing the two whole Pretty much misunderstood By the village and the world Full of big, bad, wolves.

Big Bad Wolf

The girl could've done worse Disobeying the elder's order And nibbling on half the food While prancing in the woods. Don't you get sad When people call you wolf? Though you looked more like A stray dog barging at the hut's door And a bear after swallowing the two whole Pretty much misunderstood By the village and the world Full of big, bad, wolves.
