Mary Had A Little Goat

Intro
Once upon a time, in a little children’s rhyme
Mary had a little lamb, but oh how were they wrong this time
Cause what the writers didn’t note, was that Mary had a little goat
But his fleece was just as white, with merry Mary by his side

Verse 1
A story ‘bout a beanstalk that grew higher than the sky
Maybe you should give old Jack another fucking try
Cause the story’s false, like the one we told before
The truth is, the beanstalk wasn’t higher than the door

Chorus
Kids tell kids, the story that they know
A fairytale, a rhyme, an old-school puppet show
But you must know, if they are true, you’ll feel it deep inside
The stories we tell about, are wrong and just not right

Verse 2
The writers lied about the sweet red riding hood
The story ‘bout the young sweet girl, wasn’t quite as smooth
Once a month, she grew hair, on her back, her arms, her head
The wolf wasn’t her enemy, she was the wolf instead

Chorus
Kids tell kids, the story that they know
A fairytale, a rhyme, an old-school puppet show
But you must know, if they are true, you’ll feel it deep inside
The stories we tell about, are wrong and just not right

Solo

Verse 3
Beauty and the beast, a story wrong as hell
The beast was just an angry man, people were afraid to tell
He beat is wife, he kicked his wife, he only caused stress
He left a broken family and Belle became a mess

Chorus
Kids tell kids, the story that they know
A fairytale, a rhyme, an old-school puppet show
But you must know, if they are true, you’ll feel it deep inside
The stories we tell about, are wrong and just not right
