Bears Will Kill You
Bears Will Kill You
Bears will kill you, my daddy said
They've got big claws and roam in pairs
All I knew were brown bears named Ted
At four I called 'em Teddy Bears
They've got big claws and roam in pairs
That didn't scare me so much then
At four I called 'em Teddy Bears
Later I learned of Gentle Ben
That didn't scare me so much then
The world was such a great big place
Later I learned of Gentle Ben
And put a smile upon my face
The world was such a great big place
I could just wander here and there
And put a smile upon my face -
Or sit and rest without a care
I could just wander here and there -
Then I grew up and couldn't stop
Or sit and rest without a care -
I had six boys that called me Pop
Then I grew up and couldn't stop -
There were bears at every turn
I had six boys that called me Pop -
Money I made just seemed to burn
There were bears at every turn
All I knew were brown bears named Ted
Money I made just seemed to burn
Bears will kill you my daddy said
