The great famine has come once again
All the crops are withered and dead
Hateful Stepmother fears for her life
She must convince father of her plan
“There is not enough for us to eat
Maybe need a few less mouths to feed?”
Yes, this is the best course of action
Be rid of greedy hungry children

“Young ones follow me
Out into the woods
This will be fun
Let's play a game

Of hide and seek
You can hide first”
They soon realize
She's left them there
Clever Gretel
Trail of bread crumbs
Wicked black birds
Consumed the trail

So cold, hungry and utterly lost
Wandering through the frightening woods
A strange aroma fills their nostrils
Could that possibly be gingerbread?
A blind old woman greets them kindly
“You must be hungry please come inside”
They hear the door slam hard behind them
And find themselves in white bone cages

Every day she stuffs them
Fattened on gingerbread
Soon they will be ready
Ready for the slaughter

She let's the girl
Free from her cage
“Help with the stove?
No need to fear”
Push the witch in
Watch the witch burn
They take her gold
“Stepmother's next!”
