Hello, Little Girl

WOLF: (spoken)
Good day, young lady.

LITTLE RED RIDINGHOOD: (spoken)
Good day, Mr. Wolf.

WOLF:
Mmmm...
Unhh...
Look at that flesh,
Pink and plump.
Hello, little girl...
Tender and flesh,
Not one lump.
Hello, little girl...
This one's especially lush,
Delicious...
Mmmm...
Hello little girl,
What's your rush?
You're missing all the flowers.
The sun won't set for hours,
Take your time.

RIDINGHOOD:
Mother said,
"Straight ahead,"
Not to delay
Or be misled.

WOLF:
But slow, little girl,
Hark! and hush-
The birds are singing sweetly.
You'll miss the birds completely,
You're traveling so fleetly.
Grandmother first,
Then Miss Plump...
What a delectable couple:
Utter perfection-
One brittle, one supple-
One moment, my dear-!

RIDINGHOOD:
Mother said,
"Come what may,
follow the path
and never stray."

WOLF:
Just so, little girl-
Any path.
So many worth exploring.
Just one would be so boring.
And look what you're ignoring...
Think of those crisp,
Aging bones
Then something fresh on the palate,
Think of that scrumptious carnality
Twice in one day-!
There's no possible way
To describe what you feel
When you're talking to your meal.

RIDINGHOOD:
Mother said
Not to stray.
Still, I suppose,
A small delay...
Granny might like
A fresh bouquet...
(spoken) Goodbye, Mr. Wolf.

WOLF:
(spoken) Goodbye, little girl.
And hello...(howls)
