lirik lagu the tale of bear and otter – shaina taub

(verse 1)
chapter one, tale of otter and bear
an unlikely pair with hearts suspended in the air
him just a cub, she just a toddler little otter in the water
where he came to fish for dinner one day

(pre*chorus 1)
otter said, “come and swim!” but bear replied
“my pah won’t let me in past my paws”
and just as bear almost ran away
otter climbed on land, and took his hand, and said

(chorus 1)
“this is what children do, this is what babies do
this is what giraffes do, they hide in love this is what spiders do, this is what stingrays do
this is what raccoons do, they find in love
they try in love”

(verse 2)
chapter two, bear and otter, few years older
found a sp*cious place up stream together
trading weeks between land and sea
it’s heavenly

(bridge 1)
and bear hunts nine to five
while otter finishes her degree
and they smile over dinners of sea bass and dream of
moving to alaska
(pre*chorus 2)
and bear spends too much on honey
and otter drowns in her studies
but when the day is done
they have their fun, on and on

(chorus 2)
this is what couples do, this is what creatures do
this is what giraffes do, they hide in love this is what plankton do, komodo dragons too
this is what baboons do, they find in love
they try in love

(verse 3)
chapter three, accidentally a pregnancy too soon
baby is due in june
there’s no room
winter looms a scared, unprepared
bear and otter wait for someone
to tell them what to do
do
do

(bridge 2)
bear picks up night shifts
a rift begins to sift
and otter dreams
in black and white
(pre*chorus 3)
when bears son arrives
he has bear’s brown hair
and otter’s little eyes
they cry

(chorus 3)
is this what grown ups do? is this what parents do?
is this what adults do? trade time for love

is this what grown ups do? is this what parents do?
is this what giraffes do trade time for love trade time for love

(verse 4)
chapter four, bear and otter
well past eighty*four
their kid moved to alaska, don’t ask*uh
it’s a sore subject

bear retired
bear’s pancreas expired
otter bathes him in the river
and holds him through the night

(pre*chorus 4)
she says “remember when we met?”
he said “how can i forget?
we rolled a pair of dice
and built our own paradise
life didn’t go like we tried
but it was worth it by your side”
and then he died

(chorus 4)
this is what hippos do, this is what oysters do
this is what dinosaurs did, they hid in love this is what grown ups do, this is what babies do
this is what giraffes do, they find in love

(outro)
love
this is what people do, what else can people do?
i wanna live beside you and die in love
