Barney and The Bear

Barney Rice loved the zoo
He loved to tease the bears
He poked him with the sticks he found
and bristled up their hair.

One day a bear said to him,
"Come closer... if you dare"
Barney moved up to the bars
'Cause he wasn't scared.

That great big bear took his paw
And grabbed the boy so tight
Opened up his jaws real big
Then gobbled Barney Rice.
