Goldilocks Came Calling

Goldilocks came calling
As quiet as a mouse
She broke into and raided
Someone else’s house

She went in through an unlocked door
And ate food from the fridge
Then plied herself with alcohol
Losing her bearings just a smidge

She went into the bedroom
Trying on the homeowners clothes
Then feeling a little tired
And trying to forget her woes

She jumped into her victims bed
And promptly fell asleep
The homeowner found her there
Though she hadn’t made a peep

Police were called she was arrested
But much to their displeasure
She’d left her mark upon the bed
Soiling for good measure

We hope she is disgusted
And will get her due comeuppance
Although I fear her bold as brass
She probably doesn’t give tuppence

This lady’s age is thirty nine
She’s not a child of two
And if she happens to be your daughter
Well I feel sorry for You.
