Staring in, her brow does darken
She cannot believe her eyes
Seven bears, a rat, a dog a cat?
Red Riding hood looking surprised !
Her anger mounts as she looks about
the fairy tales they do shatter
Snow White and Red with a feather bed
a lion wolf as if it doesn't matter !
Have they no feel for a tale so real
Which makes your hair stand tall
Because children fear, far and near
He'll come to eat them all
Her face bright red as the hood on her head
She starts to plot and scheme
A tale she'll weave that you'll ne're believe
that makes the whole world scream
They'll take to their beds and hide their heads
Beneath the covers shaking
Their knees will knock like the sound of a clock
that to their doom is taking
She turns away to plan the day
that she'll make the earth thunder
Shake their beds and fill their heads
With a tale of fear and wonder.

ReplyDeleteI should go to bed, hiding my head,
waiting for the thunder, who'll turn my world down under -äh-
perhaps the Commoneos better have to switch to Sleeping Beauty now' with all the thorns around the house?
This girl is big, this girl is bad
Deleteand I think you've made her
slightly mad!! ;)
Thorns could be helpful.... but to who????
Invasion from the island?
DeleteWho knows, but we have to be prepared

In that case, we'll finally welcome anyone here with roses...
Oh, I got it. You think the invaders would using the thorns against us?
