Hoodwinking Little Red

Hoodwinking Little Red By Elton Camp If the obvious isn’t recognized It can result in a bad surprise Red Riding Hood wasn’t bright Didn’t recognize the wolf on sight It would’ve been wise to try The beast earlier to identify His lupine eyes, teeth and ears Should’ve brought instant fears Some today are much like that tyke For them, also, disaster may strike Anything that is offered free Isn’t actually going to be To double your money in a year Means fraud should be so clear You’ve won a prize the caller will say It’s only the shipping that you must pay Your account has been compromised As fake, easily should be recognized Whenever there’s an unsolicited call Instantly hang up on them, one and all For if you let such folks stay around Like the wolf, they’ll gulp you down
