When the honey is dry
Days are cold
Into the woods a bear must go

Digging up rocks and stumps and trees
Looking for something
Anything to eat

The bunnies will try
To brave the snow
The bears will fry ?
And end up frozen (frozen, frozen, frozen)

When the honey is dry
Days are cold
Into the woods a bear must go

Days are filled with ice and snow
Into the bed
A bear must go

Stuffed to the gills with nuts and berries
Sleeping pills, with guts and berries

Well he tried and he tried to get to sleep
And he tossed
And he turned
And he dreamed of little sheep
When the honey is dry
Days are cold
Into the woods
A bear must go

Off to the woods
Into the night
Drawn like a moth
Into the twinkling, shimmering light

Digging up rocks
And stumps and trees
Looking for soul-food and a place to eat*

Off to the night the big bear marches
Hypnotized by the golden arches
Arches, arches, arches, arches

Shot down cold
And broke
And hungry
Needed some dough to buy some honey...honey!

Into the ranks
He was promoted
Working nights his brain exploded
Burgling ham from nine to five
Waiting for his first paycheck to arrive

Well lets suck it up son
And call me Larry
Sweeping up son
And disciplinary

When the honey is dry
Days are cold
Into the woods
A bear must go

Digging up rocks
And stumps and trees
Looking for something
Anything to eat

Gleebin, globin, globin**

When the honey is dry
Days are cold
Into the woods
A bear must go

**Strikingly similar to the "gunter glieben glauten globen" introduction to Def Leppard's "Rock of Ages" from the album PYROMANIA (1983), a phrase which has absolutely no meaning
