Cache Cache

[Verse 1]

Did you ever sleep in a bear pit

With apple cores and mice along

Did you ever lay on ice and grit

Or search for a place where the wind was gone

Did you ever tramp up endless hills

Past cozy homes with secret beds

Did you ever dream of a suicide pill

And wake up cold to the smell of bread

[Chorus]

Well I have slept there badly twice

And shared my straw with scratching mice

And Although you'll find some deep brown hair

I'll tell you something for nothing

There ain't no bears in there (cache cache)

There ain't no bears in there (cache cache)

[Verse 2]

Did you ever have to make a draw

For a hard wooden bench or a bed of stone

Did you ever jimmy a stable door

Or scare the horse to escape the snow

Did you ever invade a neat little yard

Or Wake up the kids who hope for ghosts

Did you ever cause their dogs to bark

Their guests to curse their noisy hosts

[Chorus]

Don't jump in expecting fun

Don't swagger in there with your elephant gun

Don't enter the cage with waving chairs

Cos I'll tell you something for nothing

There ain't no bears in there (cache cache)

Not a single bear in there (cache cache)

[Verse 3]

Did you ever pass the police at work

And hope that they might take you in

Did you ever wonder why music hurts

When someone plays it aloof to sin

Did you ever believe that a smile could cure

A happy face keep you warm at night?

Were you ever fooled by laughter’s lure

Only to find that they laughed in spite?

[Chorus]

Don't jump in expecting fun

Don't swagger in there with your elephant gun

Don't enter the cage with waving chairs

Cos I'll tell you something for nothing

There ain't no bears in there (cache cache)

Not a single bear in there (cache cache)

[Chorus]

Did you ever finally find a place

A soft warm bed in a room of flowers

And when you finally laid down your face

You found you slept for a hundred hours

A hundred hours

There ain't no bears in there (cache cache)

Not a single bear in there (cache cache)

No bears in there (cache cache)

There ain't no bears in there (cache cache)

Not a single bear in there (cache cache)
