Trap Little Red Riding Hood
Kyle Exum Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴Once was a girl Little Red
Who left to her Grandmas to bring her some bread
Right before she had left Mama said
Don′t wager with strangers now go right ahead
Over the hills, through the woods, to grandmama's house, she goes
Little red nodded her head
And left with goods, and on her way out, she goes
Come find me, I′m little red riding The hood's on me tightly
To try me? Unlikely, I wish a wolf would
Big and bad? Slightly
A big mouth don't fright me
Got big bear beside mе with sticks in these woods
Wolf this hood is for real this ain′t oncе ′pon a time
No we don't relate you and I we don′t rhyme
I'm not scared of the dark, black is beautiful right?
And my Gram needs her fam so it′s into the night

I See Red? It's The End, you′ll meet boy who cried
I'm toxic? You got it, blame that on my sign
You're a snack and a half and I′m tryna eat right
But a lone wolf don′t need a pack I'm back to bite

Guess who′s over the hills when you Jack Drip from Jill
Or pick Sticks up with Pigs or give Granny her meal?
Big bad and bout it I'll pop out for real
And with these 1′s you'll be done before you can squeal
Into the thick of it Little Red went
′Till I came up a-trickin' to trap me a treat
Bark but no bite? You're no Wolf, you′re a tree
You know minding your business will always be free
Lil Red the Sneezy′s are free at my shop
Which made Little Red stop she'd been waiting to cop
Red wasn′t sure 'bout the site I displayed
But in Fall gotta ball Witches cook kids who flop
Wolf this suspicious, how ashy your drip is
Your fit needs three wishes, what GodMa did this?
Really you′re reachin' weren′t you chasing three pigs?
Ain't say'n you′re Simp′rella but if the shoe fits...
Red I'm SniperWolf′s half bro you've seen me online
Big bad and boujee I′m too fine for swine
And look ashy's in fashion that′s pixy dust right?
I can leave if you like but these deals don't come twice
Red had warned as she shipped it to Grams
Don't mess with the bread or the fam or its hands
As you may guess I finessed her address
And then ran to set Red up as soon as she left
Over the hills, through the woods, to grandmama′s house, she goes
Little Red trotted ahead, and left with goods
And on her way off, she goes
Come find me I′m little red riding
The hood's on me tightly
To try me? Unlikely, I wish a wolf would
Big and bad? Slightly
A big mouth don′t fright me
And Pooh might get sheisty with sticks in these woods
Wolf this hood is for real I ain't floating your boat
No we don′t relate we don't rhyme and it shows
I ain′t scared of the dark, where the wild things bro?
And Queen Tiancé taught me don't stop for notoad

I See Red? It's the end, kiss Granny goodbye
I′m toxic? You got it, blame that on my sign
You′re a snack and a half and I ride for my sides
Plus it's better 1 Granny and girl than 5 guys

Imma let you all guess it: Whose running these streets?
It starts with an M and it ends in an E
Is you big bad or big mad? You been past your peak
And with these 1′s you'll be done before you can speak
I′d blow Granny's house down to pieces and bits
But that huffing and puffing got Mama Wolf ticked
Should try chimney diving and slide like recess
But I′m alpha wolf sized I think knocking is best
Come on out Granny, Zumba can wait
Your Lil Red hasn't eaten she needs her a plate
Gran with a pot came out quick as a bot
And let's just say I ate that with no crumbs to waste
I′m top 2 and not 2 y′all got to admit it
I'm like Dumpty y′all won't catch me slippin′
I'll slip in this fit and she won′t know the difference
Plus matching mustaches? We're practically twinnin'
I′m real weasel poppin′ this my happy end
Even found true love in food and this bed
This a great fall like Dumpty's but I′m messy still
And yes Snow White was right this food coma's for real
Into the bed to watch Wolflix I went
While I waited for Red to deliver my bread
Red on her phone was still strolling along
Till she came to the door with a ding and a dong
Over the hills, and through the woods, to grandmama′s house, she goes
Little Red walked in the crib
And looked up shook, and all in her mind, she goes
Hey Granny! Sike! You think you're sly?
I′m Lil Red not Lil Blind
A lil trick really tried I guess wishes come true
Wolf but you lyin'
This no lullaby
But I'll put you to sleep if you play me too
This for my Granny
This for my Fam
From my little red, hood to the little red, hen
From the little brown, bear to little bo and lil, lamb
Start with little ol′, me, and it′ll be your the, end
Knock knock I'm not here for ha ha′s you think this a joke?
You are what you eat guess that's means I′m the goat
Imma do what I want don't care what Simon says
Red you′re not really ready like on my way texts
Like my fairy Lil Pixi you'll vanish for good
Godmama Drama kept wishing she would
I need me a lil treat and heard revenge is sweet
And put me to sleep? Please, I belong to the sheets
What big eyes you have, oh the better to see
And what a big nose... Okay pause now that's mean
And right when I′d double forked up for the dish
Red said "what a big climb!"... wait, rewind that′s off script
Granny remember?
You're famous as ever for crate challenge cooking. You win every year!
Since a wolf′s clever and really a stepper
I'll prove that I′m gran and get Red when it's clear
One and a two get to three and you′re through
Three and a four wait you're lying, there's more?
And on five and six had the win in my grip
But Ma Nature′s a hater blew wind and I slipped
Red I′m leaping like the princess had forgot to give a kiss to me
OW! Fell off? Oh no but might've missed a beat

Joke is on y′all I was already broke
Enjoy your lil memes but I'll be back fo sho
