Nursery Rhymes we remember and all that.

[margaret]

Well , this is a different view or more sinister meaning to, the children's nursery rhyme that dear old Grandma may recite to their grandchildren .


Innocent version .

This Little Piggy went to Market,
This little piggy stayed at home.
This little piggy had roast beef.
This little piggy had none.
This little piggy went wee wee wee all the way home.




And the more horrible Soul Crushing version...

This little piggy was sold to the slaughterhouse,
This little piggy's turn will come,
This little piggy was forced to eat his cow friend to get fattened up,
This little piggy starved, and
This little piggy screamed in terror all the way home to await his fate!

Many nursery rhymes have rather nasty undertones.

It's the same with fairy tales.
