The Bear Facts
Is there no way to stem this tide of farce
This rampant race along life's endless slide
Or is it fate we all land on our ****
Feet splayed in homage to our throbbing pride
Why wouldst the fools of folly persevere
Preserve their rights in perpetuity
Abhor the unwashed masses creeping near
The edges of their ambiguity
Yet still the tug of war with knotted rope
This endless waste of timeless energy
This pandering of promises and hope
This dance of "friends", this chant of enmity
So does the polar ice melt so declare
Mankind is just one step behind its bear
