• As soon as the Wolf began to feel
    That he would like a decent meal,
    He wen't and knocked on Grandma's door.
    When Grandma opened it, she saw The sharp white teeth, the horrid grin, and Wolfie said, "May I come in?"
    Poor Grandmamma was terrified,
    "He's going to eat me up" She cried.
    And she was absolutely right.
    He ate her up in one big bite.
    But Grandmamma was small and tough,
    And Wolfie wailed "Thats not enough!
    I haven't yet begun to feel
    that I have had a decent meal!"
    He ran around the kitchen yelping
    "I've got to have another helping!"
    Then he added with a frightful leer,
    "I'm therefore going to wait right here
    Till Little Miss Red Riding Hood
    Comes home from walking in the wood."
    He quickly put on grandma's clothes
    (Of coarse he hadn't eaten thouse)
    He dressed himself in coat and hat
    He put on shoes after that
    He even brushed and curled his hair,
    Then sat himself in Grandma's chair.
    In came the little girl in red.
    She stopped. She staired. And then she said

    "What big ears you have Grandma.
    All the better to hear you with, the wolf replied
    What big eyes you have Grandma
    Said little red riding hood
    All the better to see you with, the Wolf replied.
    He sat there watching her and smiled.
    He thought "I'm going to eat this child,
    compaired to her old Grandmamma,
    She's going to taste like caviare.

    Then Little Red Riding Hood said, "But Grandma,
    What a lovely great big furry coat you have on.
    "Thats wrong!" Cried the Wolf "Have you forgot
    to tell me what BIG TEETH I've got?"
    "Ah well, nomatter what you say,
    I'm going to eat you anyway."
    The small girl smiles. One eyelid flickers.
    She whips a pistol from her knickers.
    She aims at the creatures head
    and bang bang bang she shoots him dead.
    A few weeks later in the wood,
    I came across Miss Riding Hood.
    But what a change! No cloak of red,
    No silly hood upon her head.
    She said "Hello, and do please note,
    My lovely furry WOLFSKIN COAT."
