Common Fence Bears

Lyrics

[Intro] Hey! Pour the lime, pull up a chair, There’s a brand-new law beyond the square! [Verse 1] At the fence where the tomatoes climb, Three brown bears keep watch in perfect time. One checks the latch, one sweeps the gate, One says, “No honey past eight!” [Pre-Chorus] Neighbors bring a pie, neighbors bring a pear, Nobody crosses without a bear! [Chorus] Cantina, cantina, raise your glass up high, The common fence bears are standing by! Cantina, cantina, sing it if you dare, Three fuzzy guardians of the common fence there! [Verse 2] When the wind blows hard and the hinges complain, They tie up the posts with a braided mane. A raccoon tried sneaking through after dark, But Bear Number Two had a clipboard mark. [Pre-Chorus] “Sign right here, friend, and state your name— No unauthorized snacks in the game!” [Chorus] Cantina, cantina, raise your glass up high, The common fence bears are standing by! Cantina, cantina, sing it if you dare, Three fuzzy guardians of the common fence there! [Bridge] One bear says, “Sharing!” One bear says, “Care!” One bear says, “Who left jam on the stair?” The whole block laughs till the lanterns sway, Then the bears collect their pay in hay. [Final Chorus] Cantina, cantina, stomp the wooden floor, The common fence bears are guarding every door! Cantina, cantina, let the rafters flare, Long live the keepers of the common fence bear! [Outro] Cantina, cantina, night settles fair, Three sleepy hats beside the common fence bear.
