I went to the zoo
Just the other week
Saw the kangaroo
Had a talk with the chimpanzee
He said, "Hey brother, if you want a thing that's hip.  Do the bearcat."
Do the bearcat
Mmm....
That's the name of this song
Do the bearcat
Take a little lesson and you can't go wrong
Do the bearcat
Mmmmmm...
That's the way we like it
Do the bearcat
