Bear in the Woods

[Verse] I'm in my tent, ready to rest my head It's dark outside, the moon is shining red (ooh-yeah) I close my eyes, drift off into a dream But then I feel it, a poke out of the theme [Verse 2] I try to ignore it, but it won't go away I just wanna sleep, it's been such a long day (such a long day) I roll to the side, hoping it will cease But the poking continues, disturbs my inner peace [Chorus] Bear in the woods, won't you let me sleep? (oh-oh-oh) I just want some shut-eye, promise I won't make a peep Bear in the woods, can't we find some compromise? (compromise) You can have the day, but please let me rest my eyes (rest my eyes) [Bridge] Underneath the stars, in this wilderness so deep I lay here weary, begging for some sleep The rustle of the leaves, the whispers of the night But this persistent poking keeps me from taking flight [Verse 3] In the stillness of the night, I lay in silent plea As the poking persists, my frustration begins to flee (flee) A rustle, a snuffle, the bear makes its presence known In the heart of the woods, where I'm not alone (a- aloooneee) [Outro Variant on Chorus] Bear in the woods, you have been a pain (oh-oh-oh) In your presence, I relinquish all strain Bear in the woods, as I drift into dreams so deep You watch over, as I finally find my sleep (my sleep)
