Red Riding Hood

Who would have believed that in the year of our Lord 2017
 Hot red people would come from Mars
 To seduce and destructify the simple peoples of earth?
 Failed pockets of resistance antagonised the alien invaders further
 Causing the almost extinction of the human race
 I remember a time before
 Before she offered me wine
 Looking back I should have seen
 Her bright red crimson skin
 She was part of an invasion force
 Also, she had red horns
 Now I think about it red teeth too
 I can no longer blame the wine
 Red is the colour of our blood left as a hazard on the floor
 Hot red people from Mars destructify our world
 It was time to retaliate
 An expedition to Mars
 Mars, the red, red planet
 Full of hot red people
 We were part of an invasion force
 But we failed to find our foe
 In our anger, we only saw red
 Making it impossible to find them
 Red is the colour of our blood left as a hazard on the floor
 Hot red people from Mars destructify our world
 I am lupine soldier now - my posting, Olympus Mons
 I'll search the Tharsis region for the Red Riding Hoods
 My disguise is that of an alluring human grandma
 My nightdress is cumbersome, my disguise ineffective
 I trip, my visor cracks, the icy world creeps in
 I'll think of the hot red girl and what could have been
 As my blurry vision fades, I hold on to a final thing:
 If I had got to second base could I have been
 The Martian king?
 Red is the colour of our blood left as a hazard on the floor
 Hot red people from Mars destructify our world
