LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS! OH, MY!
And jackals and elephants, too.
Out here in the woods, we could easily die.
It’s not like we’re safe in the zoo.

LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS! Oh, durn!
And crocodiles looking for lunch.
But, you had to go off and make that left turn.
If you’d only listened for once.

LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS! Oh, jeez!
And leopards and cheetahs and sharks.
I know there’s one lurking behind ev’ry tree.
And now, here it’s getting too dark.

LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS! Oh, dear!
Of course, there’re no sharks in the woods.
But, I’ve got no doubt they’d be hanging out here.
If only they could, then they would.

LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS! OH, MY!
It’s not that I’m fraidy-cat scared.
But, back in the food chain, I’m just terrified
that I might get eaten out there.

LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS! Oh, no!
I might just get gobbled with you.
But, I’m pretty sure it’s not my time to go
with six library books overdue.
