Polar Bear Cafe Lyrics

It's striking me again how very low up in the sky

The sun can sit at noon on a late December day

And it putting me in mind of a wild tropical storm

At a time when I was sitting on an island far away

I was dreaming of a night when we were shutting off the lights

Lighting dreams that burned so bright

While we'd sing and drink and play

So let's do it all again when the fire lights my pen

Have a old hoot-nanny then at the Polar Bear Cafe

They sing Ooga Booga Muska

Just the way I use to

Ooga Booga Muska

Never go away

Pour another Brandy

Lick another piece of Candy

And Dance with me tonight at the Polar Bear Café

There's a cute bartender there

He's Pierre the comic bear

He wears bright red underwear and drinks Vodka every night

He's got Eskimos and friends with gold dust that they spend

And elbows that they bend when they have you in their sight

At midnight a gentle tune starts to drift throughout the room

As the virgin bride and groom pay their tab and steal away

While Pierre begins to sing about a sunrise in the spring

You hear the cash register ring at the Polar Bear Cafe

They sing Ooga Booga Muska

Just the way I use to

Ooga Booga Muska

Never go away

Pour another Brandy

Lick another piece of Candy

And Dance with me tonight at the Polar Bear Café

There's a waitress name of Lil who can give you quite a thrill

As the beer begins to chill on the back porch in the snow

She'll ask you to for to buy her a Seven-Up and rye

And in the wink of someone's eye she says she has to go

She guzzles down her glass, pulls your hand up from her ass

Says she dropped another pass and then leaves you there to pray

While you're running up your tab and she's calling you a cab

In your heart you feel a stab at the Polar Bear Cafe

They sing Ooga Booga Muska

Just the way I use to

Ooga Booga Muska

Never go away

Pour another Brandy

Lick another piece of Candy

And Dance with me tonight at the Polar Bear Café

Cold waters running deep, wake you up when you're asleep

Bring you warmth that you can keep, and stars up in the sky

At the start of every end, when you're needing to depend

On your lover and your friend, instead of something you can't buy

There's a chill inside the air, when venture to compare

All the love that we have to share, with the love from yesterday

So give me one more kiss and a promise that says this

I hardly ever miss the Polar Bear Cafe

They sing Ooga Booga Muska

Just the way I use to

Ooga Booga Muska

Never go away

Pour another Brandy

Lick another piece of Candy

And Dance with me tonight at the Polar Bear Café
