The Lyrics
Requested by SpeakoniaLover, (a.k.a Will). The ranger is just trying hard to get rid of Yogi Bear, isn't he. Everybody knows that Yogi is smarter than the average bear! Read this parody to find out what the ranger is up to.
[Verse: Ranger Smith]
Wish I would eat a sandwich for lunch,
With some of my bears that might enjoy it for fun.
But the bears I see, they just keep on bothering me.
So I'll just dream, and keep on thinking that the bear is gone.
Wish I enjoyed fishing for something,
Like some worms to give to someone,
Bears would run, oh, and they won't like that.
So I'll just dream, and keep on thinking that the bear is gone,
[Chorus: Ranger Smith] [x2]
The bear is gone, we don't need to see him,
The bear is gone, it's gone for good.
I can almost hear my boss complainin'.
So I'll just dream, and keep on thinking that the bear is gone.
The bear is gone, I don't need to see him,
The bear is gone, yep, it's gone for good.
I can almost hear my boss complainin'.
So I'll just dream, and keep on thinking that the bear is gone.
[Outro: Ranger Smith]
Yeah, I'll just dream and keep on thinking, the bear is gone.
Wish I would eat a sandwich for lunch,
With some of my bears that might enjoy it for fun.
But the bears I see, they just keep on bothering me.
So I'll just dream, and keep on thinking that the bear is gone.
Wish I enjoyed fishing for something,
Like some worms to give to someone,
Bears would run, oh, and they won't like that.
So I'll just dream, and keep on thinking that the bear is gone,
[Chorus: Ranger Smith] [x2]
The bear is gone, we don't need to see him,
The bear is gone, it's gone for good.
I can almost hear my boss complainin'.
So I'll just dream, and keep on thinking that the bear is gone.
The bear is gone, I don't need to see him,
The bear is gone, yep, it's gone for good.
I can almost hear my boss complainin'.
So I'll just dream, and keep on thinking that the bear is gone.
[Outro: Ranger Smith]
Yeah, I'll just dream and keep on thinking, the bear is gone.
Ranger Smith loves bears, but he can't seem to keep his mind off of them. So he just thinks that the bear is gone. Nothing else.
