lyrics

Otis was a fuzzy brown bear
Woke from hibernating in his cavernous lair

Sleeping all winter long now, he gets the munchies
Wants a pot of honey, wants to smoke up some leaves

Sees that yellow sun, and he wants to have some fun
A policeman's walking to his door, now run, Otis, run

Gonna sing a little story about Otis,
The fuzzy bear's gonna get beaten down
And everywhere that he looks around,
He sees
Too many cops, too many cops, too many cops
Now run, run, Otis, run

Otis, he escapes with a dash
Sits down and pulls out his stash
Sees party-wreckin' coppers coming down every path

Hides in a bush 'til the coast looks clear
Sees cops marching in riot gear
Our hungry little buddy has got the fear

There'll be no pic-a-nics today for Otis, no,
No cake, no coffee, no pie
The Vice Squad beat him to a bloody pulp
And left him there to die

Gonna sing a little story about Otis,
Our poor little buddy's gettin' beaten down
And everywhere that he looks around,
He sees
Too many cops, too many cops, too many cops
Now run, run, Otis, run
Run, Otis, run, run, run
