the yacht club boys - how could red riding hood lyrics

[intro]
when we were young, but old enough for us to understand
we all believed in fairies and the folks in fairy land
but the modern child is runnin’ wild, he wants to know too much
he’s never understood about red riding hood

[refrain]
say, how could little red ridin’ hood have been so very good
and still keep the wolf from the door?

[verse 1]
father and mother, she had none
so where in the world did the money come from?
please let me ask it: who filled her basket?
the storybooks never tell
now, they say that she found a great big wolf in granny’s bed
and he had a great big sunbonnet pulled down over his head
but you know and i know what she must have found instead

[refrain]
say, how could little red ridin’ hood have been so very good
and still keep the wolf from the door?
how could red riding hood have been so very good
and still keep the wolf from the door?

[verse 2]
why was she dressed up in her bright flaming red
unless she expected to knock someone dead?
why did she ramble? she knew ’twas a gamble
she was out in the woods for no good
they say she was a maid most discrete (yeah?)
and there’s no doubt about it, she must have been sweet
but you know and i know that even sweet girls must eat
[refrain]
oh, how could little red ridin’ hood have been so very good
and still keep the wolf from the door?
i ask you, how could little red riding hood have been so very good
and still keep the wolf from the door?

[verse 3]
i’ve heard of many strange things in new york
but who ever heard of a wolf that could talk?
i hate to doubt it, but there’s something about it
that sounds mighty funny to me

[interlude]
now, you know, i don’t believe any one of those fairy tales is true
you don’t?
i don’t believe ’em. you believe ’em?
i believe all fairy tales
then i’d like to ask you: who was the father of all the little children of the woman that lived in the shoe?
jack the giant k!ller!

[refrain]
how could little red riding hood have been so very good
and still keep the wolf from the door?
