Mamma Bear

Have you got no sense? Have you got no shame?
Do you really want to treat this as some sort of game?
It’s all fun and games ‘til you see the tables turned
But if you play with fire you just know you will get burned…

Don’t mess with Mamma Bear because you haven’t got a prayer!
Don’t mess with Mamma Bear because the fight will not be fair!
You don’t waltz into her lair, make her business your affair
Because she’s going to set you square. You don’t mess with Mamma Bear!

Have you never heard? Have you never learned?
There is no mercy found where her kids are concerned.
Think you’re going to win? You’ve got the upper hand?
That just shows the world how much you do not understand…

Don’t mess with Mamma Bear! Every sign tells you beware!
Don’t mess with Mamma Bear because there’s no way you’re prepared!
Don’t think you can declare your intent to wage warfare
Because it’s going to get you nowhere. You don’t mess with Mamma Bear!

	She’s got claws that will cut.
	She’s got jaws that will bite.
	And she’s had about enough,
	So, she’ll quickly end the fight.
	She might seem kind of cute,
	But be warned, she’s not tame.
	What might seem just a spark
	Is quickly fanned into flame…

Don’t mess with Mamma Bear unless you want to feel despair!
Don’t mess with Mamma Bear! She’ll mess you up beyond repair!
You can say you are aware and that right now you just don’t care,
But she’s your greatest nightmare! You don’t mess with Mamma Bear!
