[Intro]:

[Wolf]: Once upon a crime…

[Red]: Ohhh, here we go again…

[Wolf]: Huff and puff, baby. Let’s dance.

[Verse 1: Wolf lead, Red punctuates]:

[Wolf]:

I’m the kind of villain that parents dread,

Slip in your storybooks, twist your head.

Sneaky motherf... [Red]: “Language!”, don’t fight fair,

Wherever you ain’t lookin’, darlin’, I’m right there.

Sittin' in my house

What's that?

Big bad wolf knockin' at my door

Huh?

Oh

My goodness

Hey

I'm not dressed

Wait a minute

What? (My)

Oh

I guess I can open it

[Red]:

What big eyes you have…

[Wolf]: Better to see through your lies.

[Red]: What big hands you have…

[Prechorus]:

[Red]: You need to borrow somethin'

Huh?

Oh

I don't know

I don't know

Can I trust you? Huh?

[Chorus: Call & Response]:

[Wolf]: I’m hot to play real cool,

[Red]: And you’re breakin’ every rule.

[Wolf]: Huffin’, puffin’, kickin’ down your door,

[Red]: You’ve been away too long, now you’re back for war.

My

What big eyes you have

Baby

My

What big ears you have

Baby

My

What big teeth you have

Baby

[Wolf]: The better to eat you with

Baby

[Red]: My

What a big mouth you have

Baby

[Wolf]: The better to eat you with

Baby

[Verse 2: Courtroom Blues];

[Wolf]:

So, Mr. Pig… built that fire, did ya?

[Red]: Order in the court, order in the court!

[Wolf]: My client’s endangered, you’re just a ham on legs.

[Red]: And here comes the sledgehammer gavel!

[Wolf]: Silly little girl

Lost in the woods

But oh

What a big heart you've got

So the better to love you with

[Red]:

And what a big soul you've got

So the better to love you with

What a big voice you have

So the better to love you with

What big ideas you have

The better to love you with

[Bridge: Vaudeville Banter (band stabs between each)]:

[Wolf]: Why you!

[Red]: Why you!

[Wolf]: Hey now…

[Red]: Hey now…

[Wolf]: Cut that out or...

[Red]: Cut that out or...

[Wolf]: Say, wise guy...

[Red]: Say, wise guy...

[Both]: Yeah!

[Red]: Fibblededish!

[Wolf]: Fibblededoosha!

[Red]: Sassafras!

[Wolf]: Fizzle-ranch!

[Red]: Yes!

[Wolf]: Yes!

[Red]: No!

[Wolf]: No!

[Red]: Red!

[Wolf]: Blue!

[Both: sing]: Flop! Flip! Flop! Flip!

I told my mama

I told my daddy

I told my brother

I told my sister

I told my family

About that Big Bad Wolf

They don't believe me

But they're gonna see

[Final-Chorus]:

He's so big

He's so bad

He says I taste so good

He's so big

He's so bad

He says I taste so good

Big Bad Wolf

Big Bad Wolf

[Outro: Red sings, Wolf interjects]:

[Red: singing, swing feel]: Put on your old grey bonnet, with the blue ribbons on it…

[Wolf: growling]: …while I hitch old Dobbin to the shay.

[Red]: Through the fields of clover…

[Wolf]: Back to Dover, baby.

[Red]: Silly, ain’t he?

[Wolf: low]: The wolf wins in my version.

[Red: Mocking]: Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf

The Big Bad Wolf

The Big Bad Wolf

Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf

Big Bad Wolf

Big Bad Wolf
