lyrics

Bears, bears, bears.
Eagles! Eagles!

Bears, bears with eagle arms

They drop in the night
They’re terribly frightening
Turn round and you’ll see them
They’re already on you

Out in the night
They’re terribly frightening
They drop from the sky
They’re already on you

Out in the night
They drop when they’re ripe
They drop from the skies
It’s terribly, terribly scary

Oh now they’ve got you
You’re caught in their graspers
They’ve fastened their raspers
You’ll never, no never, go home again

Bears, bears with eagle arms
