The Bear’s Complaint / by Bear Cam fan Jeanette Koenig
I’m a big ol’ bear and I gotta catch salmon
I like the taste, but I’d rather go clammin’
And stay on the sandy shore
And give an occasional roar
‘Cause the water is cold and it makes me shiver
And the fish swim fast in the rushing river
It’s a terrible chore
And a tedious bore
You gotta move fast, be a natural sprinter
If you wanna get fat and be ready for winter
I’m so tired and sore
I won’t do it any more
So I sat right down and I raved and ranted
How can you lunge when your butt is planted
On the riverbed floor?
I’m going to the grocery store!
