Once upon a time, long ago,
there was a wolf laying low.
All he wanted was a friend or two
but he didn't know what to do.
Then one day a pig appeared
and the wolf no longer feared
being alone
rapunzel, rapunzel
let down your hair
a girl with long golden tresses
trapped in a tower
of fear and shame
a girl with a secret:
rainbow heart
hidden under golden waves
On the streets of Lost Angels In the red riders hood There lived a woman that was pure from her mane to her blood Her hair was not silk nor blonde nor cascading It was the kinky coarse curls that were tamed by braiding It ran the length of 10 Impa
Humans, they fear us because of our size.
through no fault of our own, its us they despise.
We have a right to what's ours, so leave us alone.
Don't climb that beanstalk, stay out of our home.
You narrowed your mind
And it’s such a shame;
The wasted potential,
The weight of the blame.
It lies heavy on your shoulders,
On your mind, your heart.
It consumes your soul,
They’ll scream and say I robbed them
But don’t speak of how they robbed me
Though I suppose it’s hard to recognize
Your slave once he’s been freed.
