We were cooking sausages
on the campfire singing songs,
when suddenly I heard a sound.
I knew something was wrong.

I got my torch and had a look.
Something moved behind a tree.
I saw a wild animal.
There was a bear in front of me!

Were you sitting round the fire
when the bear appeared?
Were you singing camp songs
when the bear appeared?


What were you doing
when the bear appeared?
The bear appeared.
The bear appeared.
What were you doing
when the bear appeared
at the camp last night?

I shouted: 'Everybody run!
There's a bear behind the tree!
It's a great big scary bear.
Open the gate! Follow me!'

It was just a baby bear.
It was scared. It ran away.
We packed our things
and left the camp.
We'll go camping another day!

Were you sitting on a swing
when the bear appeared?
Were you lying in your tent
when the bear appeared?

What were you doing
when the bear appeared?
The bear appeared.
The bear appeared.
What were you doing
when the bear appeared
at the camp last night?

What were you doing
when the bear appeared?
The bear appeared.
The bear appeared.
What were you doing
when the bear appeared
at the camp last night?"
