Bears Don't need Fishing Poles

Bears don't need no stinking poles,

they stick their paw inside wet holes,

and catch a fish with claws and paw,

and immediately chuck it in their maw.

"You humans, you stand there all silly and slow,

while the fish steal your bait and laugh and dance.

And you wear silly hats and swipe at gnats.

Just to get away from your wives and their spats."

"You think we are dumb,

but we have class and nerve

and can catch a fish no matter how it swerves.

We eat well and love the smell,

until you humans turn our rivers to hell."
