Little Red
[Verse 1]
Little red, little red
Run, run away
There's a wolf around back
And he's headin' your way
Little red, little red
Don't look into his eyes
He'll woo you with a lullaby
Under a disguise
[Chorus]
Oh, little girl
Throwin' sticks and stones
You're ragin' at the world
But you're breakin' your own bones
[Verse 2]
Little red, little red
Still suckin' on your thumb
'Til it shakes and it bleeds
And the skin goes numb
Little red, I can see
Your back's against the wall
You keep flailin' your fists
In the middle of it all
[Chorus]
Oh, little girl
Throwin' sticks and stones
You're ragin' at the world
But you're breakin' your own bones
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 3]
Little red, little red
Steam comin' out your ears
You've been fightin' that dog now
For too many years
Little red, don't you know
You're lost in the dark
All that screamin' at ghosts
And punchin' at stars
[Chorus]
Oh, little girl
With your ancient wound
Oh, the wolf's at the door
And he's howlin' at the moon
Oh, little red
Throwin' sticks and stones
At the mean old world
Don't you know you're not alone?
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
