lyrics

oto the bear slept by the stream
oto the bear couldn't come clean
fish dance the disco of bear dreams
get up get up get up get up woo

oto the bear played by the thicket
oto the bear just couldn't kick it
berries crushed microphones concert ticket
get up get up get up get up woo

oto take a chance
you gotta be gotta be taking a chance
get up get up get up get up

oto the bear they are coming to see
strapped to the cage of the magnolia tree
oto the bear they are coming to look
brought by the idea that souls can be shook

oto the bear, he's oto the bear
