Sm okey th e B ear U pdated
* ith his h it m J shm v ihuvcl
In his baggy dungarees
He was always m the forest
S m lfm g round about the trees
He had quite a reputation
Asa conservation bear
But thal was m the Fifties
Today he doesn t care
Smokey the Bear Smokes the bear
Symbol for a loathsome disgusting aflair
Cuts and sells the forest
From u nderneath our eve
Then shrugs his burly shoulders
When we dare to ask him why
S*f kt? OUl U n u t- | d- ii.li
For his lav rite I m lc Sam
And he s got a great idea
W ith his iordwood i utlm g Siam
Hr II sell the public permits
To clean up a pile of slash
Then when thes goto fill them
They 11 lind n othing but ash
Smokey the bear Smokey the bear
Aims a flaming blast in the pine scented air
Walls to burn the brush
Til the winds ol August bio*
Then shakes his head and wonders
W here d the frag ran t forests go7
There arc oriental buyers
For the lorests in the West
And it s Smokey s |ob to sell them
Virgin tim ber they love best
The land is getting barren
And the wildlife s ru n n in g si ared
but Smokey got his gold for
Every acre thal he bared
Smokey the bear Smokev the bear
Selling I S tim ber that we cannot spare
builds m roads (or logging
With tales people pav
Then close them to traffic
While the rape is underway
II you want to have a picnic
In a shads forest glen
Am t go driving to the monisms
Where the woods base always been
You cannot spread vour blanket
On the dusty trashs humps
iut the view s fantastic
You II see miles and miles ol stumps
Smokey the bear Smokey the bear
I. ills the land with c learcuts and destroys everyw here
bother conservation
W hats ecosystem mean
Smokev s talking dollars when
He says I el s keep it green
