lyrics

We were camping one night in the neighbor's backyard
Testing how we would do, but it wasn't that hard
We sat up in a tent, but didn't know what to do
So we went back inside to watch a movie or two
Well the picture was good, but the sound wasn't on
So if it's okay with you, we might be happier gone
We might be happier working out a life on our own
Without you
You

We shit in the woods
We're furry and brown
We like to exist
When you're not around

Well we never believed that we were meant for this world
So we dropped out of town and we gave it a whirl
You always complained we can't take care of ourselves
But look at us now, we're unlike anyone else
We catch the salmon upstream from the river nearby
Stuff them into a crust and bake them into a pie
If I say so myself, this will never get old
And we love it, love it

We shit in the woods
We're furry and brown
We like to exist
When you're not around
But sometimes we're scared
Because we're surprised
But don't be surprised
When you see us bears, bears, bears

There's a lot to be learned from all the work that we've done
It took a lot of our time but it was plenty of fun
If we do this again and I think that we will
There'll be less time to be cute and more salmon to kill
Now the secret I feel to being free thinking bears
Is ignoring your comforts and forgetting your cares
It takes a boatload of moxie and a thimble of spunk
To be grizzly, grizzly

We shit in the woods
We're furry and brown
We like to exist
When you're not around
But sometimes we're scared
Because we're surprised
But don't be surprised
When you see us bears, bears, bears

We shit in the woods
We shit in the woods
We shit in the woods
