lyrics

Bears are known to be the more obliging
of the larger furry mammals in the motion picture industry.
They memorize their lines, but they tend to improvise,
and good luck stopping them once they start to spout
what they believe to be Shakespearean declamations
in stentorious tones.

Acting bears are usually classically trained,
while others went to the school of hard knocks.
And in the northern hemisphere it’s best to work in summer
or they keep falling asleep on the job.

Affect a walking cane, wear a suit and hat and tails
and you might attract attention
from a service who provides animals for motion pictures.
Just remember to keep your claws in the contract
