about

You've heard about the tale of Little Red Riding Hood being tricked by the wolf, but have you heard the one about the Big Bad Wolf being tricked by Red? Lilith Max's retelling of the classic fairytale conveys the message that underestimating a girl is the worst mistake any predator can make.

lyrics

There’s one tale that begins
Deep, deep in the forest.


I came upon you so sudden
A girl in the midst of the woods
My eyes adjusted to color
I saw a red riding hood


Slowly creeping closer to you
But little did I see the hunter in you


Now little nightmare you have beautiful eyes
I can see all the stories where beasts go to die
I’m the bad wolf of fables and my hunger still roars
Come let me feast upon all that is yours


I wondered how I would catch you
Should I play with my prey
I failed to notice the glint of your knife
And the smirk on your face far crueler than mine


Now suddenly I see
Why they call you a monster and not me


Now little nightmare you have beautiful eyes
I can see all the stories where beasts go to die
I’m the bad wolf of fables and my hunger still roars
Come let me feast upon all that is yours


I took my chance
And came up beside you
I flashed a grin
Watched as your eyes grew
I tell you come closer
You abide my words
I open my maw
And fall to the dirt


You've come to take my skin
To wrap my teeth around your throat
You’ve come to make some coin
To fashion yourself a new coat
And I should have seen it all come close
But the forest hides the truth
And only it will know


Now little nightmare you have beautiful eyes
I can see all the stories where I’ll go to die
I’m the bad wolf of fables yet your hunger roars more
Come feast upon all that is yours
