    According to Green Jell-ÿ the moral of the story is that bands with no talent can easily amuse idiots with a stupid puppet show.

    Their version actually expands the story a bit, it shows the first two were lazy,

    Well, the first little piggy, well, he was kinda hicky
    Spent most of his days just a-dreamin’ of the city
    And then one day, he bought a guitar
    He moved to Hollywood to become a star
    But living on the farm, he knew nothing of the city
    Built his house out of straw, what a pity
    Then one day, jammin’ on some chords
    Along came the wolf knocking on his door

    Well, the second little piggy, well, he was kinda stoned
    He spent most of his time just a-ganja smokin’
    Hoppin’ and a-boppin’ down on Venice Beach
    Getting paid money for religious speech
    Built his shelter from what he garbage picked
    Mostly made up of old cans and sticks
    Then one day he was cranking up Bob Marley
    Along came the Wolf on his big bad Harley

      After posting this reply, I started thinking about the next verse. Basically the 3rd pig was a nepo baby.

      Well, the third little piggy was a grade-A student
      His daddy was a rockstar named Pig Nugent
      Earned his Master’s degree from Harvard College
      Built his house from his architect knowledge
      A tri-level mansion, Hollywood Hills
      Daddy’s rock stardom paid for the bills

      The second pig, was actually making money, albeit as a preacher of some kind.
