Little Red Riding Hood is hopping through the forest!
Doesn’t know the big bad wolf, hiding in Grand ma’s closet.
She has no place to hide with her basket full of ideology.
Democracy and Liberty, equal rights and opportunity,
For peace, justice, education, and basic amenities,
O! My angel! Don’t you see! The wolf is there to devour it all!
This wolf has many faces with sharp and dangerous claws.
Mega corporations and their greedy financial monopoly,
Arrogant governments with terrifying military supremacy,
Supporting unfair tax policies, low wages, and inequality,
World demagogues pretending to look after little people,
Oh! My angel! How would you face these scavenger of wealth?
The savage wolf has been in grandma’s coat far too long.
It has multiple names and hide outs to move around.
It’s most cruel face Slavery and Apartheid is abolished,
Cast system much abhorred and despised is outlawed.
Now pride and dignity in human labor must be reinstalled.
A living wage for a honest day’s work is time’s fair demand.
Yet wealth is being hoarded by too few powerful czars.
Rest are being deprived, their economic growth is barred.
Millions are made poor and destitute in an economic bust,
Stricken by man made disaster toiling for mere bread crumbs
Oh! My angel! How would you survive this betrayal of trust?
Look out! Your precious basket is being robbed by their lust.
