Barenaked Ladies - The Other Day I Met A Bear lyrics

The other day i met a bear
A great big bear oh way up there

He said to me why don't you run
I see you ain't got any gun

And so I ran away from there
But right behind me, was that bear

Ahead of me there was a tree
A great big tree oh glory be

The nearest branch was ten feet up
I'd have to jump and trust my luck

And so I jumped into the air
But I missed that branch oh way up there

Now don't you fret don't you frown
Cause I caught that branch
On the way back down

This is the end there ain't no more
Unless I meet that bear once more

And so I met that bear once more
He's just a rug on my living room floor
