The Lyrics
you know she can be found
sleepin' there in their home
when those bears come around
those beasts will gnaw her bones
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
goldilocks has made 'em mad
she busted up the baby's bed
ate bits of their repast
the furniture torn to shreds
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
you don't want to touch their stuff
baby, they will chew your...limbs right off
bears are big and ugly
don't make them feel dismay
don't be cavalier and huffy
you don't want their claws used to slay
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
don't tear their place apart
they're sure to club you, baby...and it smarts
don't shake up toothy creatures
it isn't sage to do
don't you know they're hungry
and you know that they'd love you
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
that old chair, bear mother loved ?
baby, it looks used and...beaten up
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
you don't want to see 'em gruff
baby, that's your cue to...knock it off
sleepin' there in their home
when those bears come around
those beasts will gnaw her bones
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
goldilocks has made 'em mad
she busted up the baby's bed
ate bits of their repast
the furniture torn to shreds
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
you don't want to touch their stuff
baby, they will chew your...limbs right off
bears are big and ugly
don't make them feel dismay
don't be cavalier and huffy
you don't want their claws used to slay
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
don't tear their place apart
they're sure to club you, baby...and it smarts
don't shake up toothy creatures
it isn't sage to do
don't you know they're hungry
and you know that they'd love you
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
that old chair, bear mother loved ?
baby, it looks used and...beaten up
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
don't eat gruel
cause those bears are cruel
you don't want to see 'em gruff
baby, that's your cue to...knock it off

Excellent! Now how 'bout trying "Don't Knit. Crewell." :-D
So, gruel and porridge are synonymous? I always wondered about that. Cute parody! 555
