Well, I saw it advertised one day
That the Bear Mountain picnic was comin' my way
"Come along and take a trip, we'll bring you up there on a ship
Bring the wife and family, bring the whole kids", yippee
Well, I run right down and bought a ticket
To this thing called the Bear Mountain Picnic
Little did I realize, I was in for a pleasant, funny surprise
It had nothin' to do with picnics
Didn't come close to a mountain, I hate bears
Took the wife and kids down to the pier
There were 6000 people there
Everybody had a ticket for the trip
"Oh well", I said, "It's a pretty big ship"
Besides, anyhow, the more the merrier
Well, we all got on and what do you think
That big old boat started to sink
More people kept a-pilin' on
That old ship was a-goin' down
Funny way to start a picnic
Well, I soon lost track of my kids and wife
So many people I never saw in my life
That old ship was sinkin' down in the water
There were 6000 people tryin' to kill each other
Dogs a-barking, cats a-screaming
Women a-yelling, men a-flying, fists a-flying, paper flying
Cops a-coming, me running
Maybe we just better call off the picnic
I got shoved down, got pushed around
All I remember was a moanin' sound
Don't remember one thing more
All I remember's walkin' up on a shore
My arms and legs were broken
My feet was splintered, my head was cracked
I couldn't walk, couldn't talk, smell, feel
Couldn't see, I didn't know where I was
I was bald, quite lucky to be alive though
Well, feelin' like I just climbed outta my casket
I grabbed back hold of my picnic basket
Took the wife and kids and started home
Wishin' I'd never got up that morning
Now, I don't care just what you do
If you wanna have a picnic, that's up to you
But don't tell me about it, I don't wanna hear it
'Cause see, I just lost all my picnic spirit
Stay in my kitchen, have picnics
I have picnic in my bathroom
Well, it don't seem to me quite so funny
What some people are gonna do for money
There's a brand new gimmick every day
Just to take somebody's money away
I think we oughta take some of these people
Put 'em on a boat, send 'em up to Bear Mountain for a picnic
That the Bear Mountain picnic was comin' my way
"Come along and take a trip, we'll bring you up there on a ship
Bring the wife and family, bring the whole kids", yippee
Well, I run right down and bought a ticket
To this thing called the Bear Mountain Picnic
