dancing bear

Current mood: gloomy
Category: dance and personal expression

today i saw a song on the internet that i thought would be nice. it is by my friends and they are called north sea navigator and one of them is a lady with a giant violin and another one is a boy who sings and sounds sad most of the time.


the song is called dancing bear and i thought that it would be jolly and would cheer me up. i have been feeling a bit floppy recently because i have been worried (by a fox). the naughty fox worried and shook me until some of my stuffing came out. i had to bite him very hard before he went away. and now i am missing some stuffing but anyway i digress and most of you know that it unusual for me because i am so focussed but anyway i digress.

i was wrong about being cheered up by this song because it sounds sad and although i dont understand a word of it there was a bit about a coat and something about the body not giving in (i know that sometimes it does so this is not entirely an accurate representation of the human condition but maybe it is not supposed to be). there was a good bit though that went dance dance dance dancing bear.

i will spend the rest of the afternoon dancing on alices bed. it is now after midday. maybe if i dance lots she will get up.

Comments:
the song was inspired by the plight of the dancing bears in India

dancing bear

some leaves just let go
some take the wind meet the rest
on the way down
he wears an autumn coat
we circle each other and dance
then we fall down

a hunger tears from withing
the body won't give in

a branch whose roots are still
there is no winter that's known
to human will
his heart is made of stone
sing your song of tears alone
blackbird and crow

dance dance dance dancing bear
what have we done
what do we care
