Polar Bear Lyrics

I'm a polar bear
A polar bear in a zoo
Pace back and forth
Pace back and forth

I'm a polar bear
Polar bear in a zoo
Pace back and forth
Pace back and forth

Stuck in this cage
Stuck here with you
Pace back and forth
Pace back and forth

Stuck in this cage
Stuck here with you
Creep up on me
I'll creep up on you

And here we are
Stuck here with you
Creep up on me
Creep up on me

And here we are
I'm stuck here with you
You fence me in
I'll turn on you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Do you really need an explanation?

Great riff, too.

Well at face value it's obviously about confined animals, but knowing Therapy there has to be a deeper meaning.

This band were definitely before their time, I love it when the song breaks down at around 1:45.

I actually think this song is about a marriage or relationship that isn't working out and has become all about sex. Or maybe it's about being in jail.
