NAUGHTY GIRLS & NAUGHTY BOYS...

ROCKING HORSES PAINTED RED

Naughty girls and naughty boys

Come and buy my little toys,

Nooses made of gingerbread

And rocking horses painted red;

Pins and needles, vixen vexed

Wicked boys, did kill them next,

While wicked girls bled on the bed

Near rocking horses painted red;

Blue flame, white flame, crimson sky

Evil children all must die,

So marshmallow monkeys with kangaroo thread

Stitch rocking horses painted red;

And the looking glass stares back at me

Placed deep and cold ‘neath silk spun trees

While twelve blind mice plus two rats dead

Ride rocking horses painted red!
