The Wombats - Don't Poke The Bear Lyrics

The Wombats Lyrics

"Don't Poke The Bear"

Guess I'm always blinded
By the emperor's new clothes
There's always something lurking
Down the rabbit hole
And in the back of your mind there's a crosshair
And a target, powder blue
Don't wanna cause any trouble
Don't wanna poke the bear in the zoo

Don't poke the bear in the zoo
Don't poke the bear in the zoo

Drama becomes elastic
Then snaps back into place
I think I saw your temperament
Running out the gate
Cocaine eyes and a choke slam
Blood vessels I never knew
Don't wanna stand in your way dear
Don't wanna poke the bear in the zoo

Don't poke the bear in the zoo
Don't poke the bear in the zoo
Don't poke the bear in the zoo

It's just a feeling
A blood moon
And I watch it pass the way it's passed before
Come down from the ceiling
Change the view
Just leave the keys in a plant pot by the door
Caught in a loop, caught in a loop
Don't poke the bear in the zoo

Don't poke the bear in the zoo
Don't poke the bear in the zoo
Don't poke the bear in the zoo
Don't poke the bear in the zoo
