Gee, thanks. (Note the subtle yet ironic sarcasm there).

"Do Bears..." is a rather easy song to gather the lyrics from-

in comedy (especially songs) it is neccissary to understand what
the person in singing in order to get the jokes (with the possible
exception of "Louie, Louie")

Anyway, when I saw the lyrics being posted, I held my breath in
anticipation, finally the answer to something that has been puzzling
me for quite some time:

IS *WHAT* Godhead?!?! (Sounds most like "Reagan" or "Raven",
neither which makes sense given the context of the song).

AND YOU DIDN'T KNOW EITHER!  (Stop me before I flame!)  If you
*MUST* post lyrics make sure you KNOW them before posting them,
please! (Someday remind me to post the lyrics for "Night Scented
Stock") I had forgotten all about this KaTe Trifle, but now you
reminded me, and I'm all frustrated again.  Sheesh.
