Kind bird and a good jam session Local bear knows what's good to eat Local bear takes a trip to the lakeshore Where the rednecks and the hippies all meet Smell patchouli and a college jazz Red wine and a lot of sharp knives Kick'n up past the Kicking Horse Pa** Roll the tone out for a mellow good time Not as smart as the average bear Picnic baskets around the people down there Watch the action from a thin Fir tree Helicopter dances as far as you could see Let's dance Tots are playing on the beach below him Too close for comfort so they call the cops Safety first for those that don't know him Pop a cap and see the big bear drop Mountie, wish you were directing traffic? Instead of taking down the big black oaf? Lose-lose with this demographic You're a k**er if you do and you're damned if you don't Not finished and he rolls and balls They cry murder and ignore the band Heavy head to the lake he crawls And drowns to the sound of Dixieland
