Bear Spektor Lyrics

I think of you
and then i think of me
and then i think of you
and then i think of me
and then i think i know
but then i know i don't
and then i think i should stop thinking
and go to sleep

i'm glad that i don't work a 9 to 5
and then i'm glad that i
don't work a 10 to 6
and then i'm glad that i
don't work an 11 to 7
and then i'm glad i don't work a 12 to 8

but i live
in my mom's and dad's house
with my little brother
bear spektor
bear spektor
bear spektor
bear spektor
bear spektor....

Cover art for Bear Spektor lyrics by Regina Spektor

this is just a fun song. she's happy to live with her parents and her brother because at least she doesn't have a soul-sucking 9 to 5 job.

My sentiments exactly >.<

I always think of Regina's little brother asking her to write a song about him (maybe even just jokingly/playfully) and her not knowing quite what to write when I hear this. And then it just sort of lapses into a stream-of-consciousness sort of thing.

This probably isn't the song's real origin at all, but it makes me smile nonetheless.

yeah if i knew her i would make her write a song about me shes such a great story teller and singer

I haven't heard this song but reading the lyrics makes me think it's about how happy she is to have a family, and a family that she loves and a family that loves her and that she gets to be with her family a lot. Regina seems to have a very strong connection with Bear. :]

Ha ha, according to the acknowledgements in "Begin to Hope," her brother's real name is Boruch.

I always thought Regina was playing the role of the sister bear in the fable of Goldilocks.
