I may go out tomorrow, If I can borrow my coat to wear
Oh I'd step out in style, With my see-see smile and my dancing bear
Outrageous - allow me, Courageous - charming
Oh who will think a boy and bear
Could be well accepted everywhere
It's just amazing how fair people can be - doop-n-doo-dee

Seen at the nicest places, Where welfared faces all stop to stare
They give em the grandest influences
Simon Smith and his dancing bear
They love us, don't they, They feed us, won't they,
Oh who will think a boy and bear
Could be well accepted everywhere
It's just amazing how fair people can be - doop-n-doo-dee

Oh who needs money, When you're funny
A great attraction everywhere
With the Simon Smith and his dancing bear
It's Simon Smith and the amazing dancing bear
