It used to be that polar bears
went bowling, just for grins,
with snowballs for their bowling balls
and penguins as the pins.

The bears would have a blast
with all the snowballs that they threw.
The penguins weren't as happy;
that's the only time they flew.

So penguins all moved south and now
they're at the other pole.
Well, wouldn't you move far away
if bears used you to bowl?
