Listen to a short sample from this song, The Bear, the Cat and the Bird (mp3, 1.1mb)

The Bear, the Cat, and the Bird

And so the story goes
Of how the polar bear knows
About how the colour of their nose
Can give them away
But this is not a big flaw
The polar bear is wise
They cover their nose with a paw
And shut their eyes
And just disappear

Chorus
They're the most beautiful creatures
In the world
But they can just they can just disappear

With a tiger cub
The circus ran away
Now she is all grown up
And doesn't want to stay
And now she has dreams
Of anonymity
A secret life among trees
Where she can't be seen
She can just disappear

And in a journal you found
An entry your grandfather wrote
A hundred years ago
On the south Kerry coast
And in it he writes
About an eagle in flight
And how his heart was filled
As it soared in the sky
And just disappeared
