Polar Bear Tooth Cleaning Day

Stay back, save yourselves, be quiet and stand out of the way
It is a nefariously thrilling polar-bear-tooth-cleaning-day.
I only do this for one polar bear, his name is grumpy Jay.
He does not trust anyone else; only reason that I stay.

Cleaning his uppers now, I have to stand on a ladder gray.
If it falls down, I might get hurt, as the floor is a long way.
Please do not giggle or excite him. Murderous can be Jay.
If you make him angry, I doubt that I could save you today.
