Joan Armatrading - Eating the Bear lyrics

He had me down but, I put up a fight
I saw those teeth and I groped for my knife
Big brown bear with the juice from his mouth
He could taste my leg
And he thought he'd got me

But, I, I'm eating the bear

He lurked around 'Cos he knew where I lived
I'm in the jungle and he means to eat me
He means to eat me he's a hungry bear
He touched my arm and he thought he'd got me

But, I, I'm eating the bear
I'm eating the bear i'm eating the bear
I'm eating the bear

Some days the bear will eat you
(Some days you'll eat the bear)
Some days the bear will eat you
(Some days you'll eat the bear)
Some days the bear will eat you
(Some days you'll eat the bear)
Some days the bear will eat you
(Some days you'll eat the bear)

And I, I'm eating the bear
I'm eating the bear i'm eating the bear

It's not just girls he eats who he wants
He's big and strong fights dirty and mean
If you spill some blood
He'll smell you for miles
You better watch out
'Cos he's right behind you

And I, I'm eating the bear
I'm eating the bear i'm eating the bear
I'm eating the bear

Some days the bear will eat you
(Some days you'll eat the bear)
Some days the bear will eat you
(Some days you'll eat the bear)
Some days the bear will eat you
(Some days you'll eat the bear)
Some days the bear will eat you
(Some days you'll eat the bear)

And I, I'm eating the bear
I'm eating the bear i'm eating the bear
I'm eating the bear i'm eating the bear
I'm eating the bear
