Three Bears with a Beat

Snap or clap or pat, or keep the beat in anyway you want on the words in parenthesis and where you see (x)'s
(Once) upon a (time) in the (mid)dle of the (woods)
there were (three) (bears).
(One) was a (Pa)pa bear, (one) was a (Ma)ma bear,
(one) was a (Wee) bear. (x)(x)
A(long) came the (girl) with the (gold)en curls.
She (knocked) on the (door) but (no) one was (there).
So she (walked) right (in) cause she (did)n't care.
(Home), (home), (home), came the (Pa)pa bear,
(Home), (home), (home), came the (Ma)ma bear,
(Home), (home), (home), came the (wee) bear. (x) (x)
(change the voice with each bear)
"(Some)one's been (eat)ing my (porr)idge!" (x)
said the (Pa)pa (bear).
"Grrrrrr" (hold hands in front like sharp claws)
"(Some)one's been (eat)ing my (porr)idge! ((x))
said the (Ma)ma (bear). "Ahhhhhhh"
(throw both hands up in surprise)

"(Hey)-baba-(ree)-bear,"

(said) the little (wee) bear,

"(Some)one has (eat)en my(soup)!
Hmmmmmph!" (cross arms on chest and pout)
"(Some)one's been (sit)ting in (my) (chair)!"
said the (Pa)pa (bear). "Grrrrrrrrr"
"(Some)one's been (sit)ting in (my) (chair)!"
said the (Ma)ma (bear)!" "Ahhhhhhh"
"(Hey)-baba-(ree),bear,"
said the little (wee) bear,
"(Some)one has (brok)en my (seat)!
Hmmmmmph!"
"(Some)one's been (sleep)ing in (my) (bed)!"
said the (Pa)pa (bear)! "Grrrrrrrrr"
"(Some)one's been (sleep)ing in (my) (bed)!"
said the (Ma)ma (bear). "Ahhhhhhhh"
"(Hey)-baba-(ree)-bear,
(said) the little (wee) (bear),
"(Some)one is (still) in my (bed)!
Hmmmmmph!"
(Change to a whisper)
Just then Goldilocks woke up.
(Scream, arms raised:) "Aaaaahhhhhhhhh!"
She (jumped) out of (bed) and she
(beat) it out of (there)!
(point with thumb)
"(Bye),(bye), (bye),"
said the (Pa)pa bear. (wave)
"(Bye), (bye), (bye),"
said the (Ma)ma bear. (wave)
"(Hey)-baba-(ree)-bear,"
(said) the little (wee) bear, "
(This) is the (end) of our (tale).
Hmmmmmph!"
