[Verse 1]
Sir, I parked my juggernaut at your gate
Fifteen thousand miles, and I'm feeling great
I’ve been on the run, but I done my time
You just can't stand still with a friend like mine
[Chorus]
There's a bear that walks like a man
Better shake him fast
Better hide yourself if you can
Cause he wants your ass
I believe you’ll do quite well
But only time will tell
If you got the bear, or the bear got you
[Verse 2]
Drive the coach and six for the county line
Point me towards the tube and I'll be just fine
Mr. Quick has flown from the cosmic zoo
Someone must be him and I just found you
[Chorus]
There's a bear that walks like a man
Better shake him fast
Better hide yourself if you can
Cause he wants your ass
I believe you'll do quite well
But only time will tell
If you got the bear, or the bear got you
