lyrics

Is a Penguin a Mammal?
Or is it a kind of fish?
Is it a kind of demon?
Oh it’s the deadliest threat to categorisation
Of this animal nation

Please come back to the polar bear enclosure

Mammals might have milk
They don’t lay edible eggs
A silkworm might have silk
But a milkman wears a pair of legs

I would like a little more cider
A fly would like a little less spider web
Please come back to the polar bear enclosure

For a polar bear is a powerful bear
But not immune to the rhythm of the birds in the air
It’s got a powerful nose and a powerful scent
So we follow the tracks around the back of the tent
Around the back of the tent and then back to the lair
And Aurora Borealis is a solar flare

Enclosure is closing at twenty to five
The chickens are roosting
The bees in their hive
The two of us try to cling on to our lives
But the polar bear’s hungry
I hope we’ll survive

Little white spot on a black egg
Is it a stick insect egg?
Is that egg now spawning?
Spawning a stick insect leg?

I would like a little more cava
Volcano’s neighbour wants a little less lava
Please come back to the polar bear enclosure

Is a Zebra a horse?
Or is it a kind of Pig?
Do scientists know for certain?
Can a pig even get that big?

I would like a Long Island Ice tea
Please will you be good to me?
Please come back to the polar bear enclosure

For a polar bear is a powerful beast
From the north to the south the the west to the east
And a powerful mouth has powerful teeth
And we suckle on the nipple on the belly of the beast

Suckle on the Nipple on the Belly of the Beast!

Enclosure is closing forever this time
The Ice caps are melting
The polar bear’s dying
A few of the zoos try to keep them alive
But I’m banned from the zoo by my humanoid wife
