Then we have another filk to the same tune
Blood Will Tell by Michael Hopcroft

Little Girl of Little wit,
Stretch your little mind a bit.
My eyes are large to pierce the night;
My teeth are long and sharp and white.
The woodsman sought to end my life
With wolvesbane and a silver knife.
His throat is torn from ear to ear,
The better not to interfere.

Chorus:
For I am the old one,
Of fur, flesh, and bone.
And I am the cold one
You must face alone.

Your mother did her very best
To Train you for this final test,
Then sent you off to Grandma's bed,
The full moon waning overhead.
You've basked in Mother's care enough;
Now prove to me you have the stuff.
And if you fail, you won't go back,
For this is how we thin the pack.

chorus

The secret that your blood conceals
Is not for those whose chat reveals
The whereabouts of all their kin
To strangers with a wolfish grin.
Now see me change before your eyes
As I cast off my human guise.
Your caution now is far too late.
Granddaughter, fool, come meet your fate!
