Polar Bear! Polar Bear!

Polar Bear, Polar Bear

Your ice is melting all around you.

What will you do?

Polar Bear, Polar Bear,

Can you find a strong ice patch

To sit upon while you eat your catch?

Polar Bear, Polar Bear,

Without that tasty seal for dinner

You will get thinner and thinner.

Polar Bear, Polar Bear

You are the biggest bear of all

We must listen to your call.

Where Have All The Codfish Gone?

Where have all the codfish gone,

Asked the hungry seal to the polar bear?

Where have the codfish gone,

Asked the salmon to the narwhal?

Where have all the codfish gone,

Asked the ivory gull to all his Arctic friends?

The codfish asked

Where have all my plants and plankton gone?

Melted away. Melted away, sighed the little boy

Sitting in the sun.

Let us work towards keeping this environmental nursery rhyme a tale, not a truth.
