When the panda bear thinks about sleeping
His hunger begins to speak
For the food he thinks about leaving
But sleep forces him to stay
When eating, sleep weighs
In sleep, hunger awakens him
Eat and sleep and live
While he strife
In the movie of his life
The panda bear dances
And moves as he fancies
