The great big bear,
(sing language for bear)
Gives a warning with a soft little growl.
(growl)
Waves its paws in the air.
(move hands like claws)
Shakes its great big head
(shake head)
Rubs its furry little ears
(rub ears)
Gives a great big roar
(loud roar)
Then goes to sleep in its lair.
(hands to side of face for sleep)
(sing language for bear)
Gives a warning with a soft little growl.

Shakes its great big head
(shake head)
Rubs its furry little ears

Gives a great big roar
(loud roar)
Then goes to sleep in its lair.
