Big Bad Wolf lyrics

[Intro]
There’s one tale that begins
Deep, deep in the forest

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Slowly creeping closer to you
But little did I see the hunter in you

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
La, la-di-di-da
La-di-di-da, di-da
La, la-di-di-da
Mm-mm
[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Now suddenly I see
Why they call you a monster and not me

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
La, la-di-di-da
La-di-di-da, di-da
La, la-di-di-da
La-di-di-da, di-da

[Bridge]
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 round 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

[Chorus]
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
