Music: Chan Kinchla & Brendan Hill Lyrics:
John Popper

Bagheera walked into the bar and poured himself a
drink His fur was stained with the blook of
monkeys and he needed time to think The man at the
bar said, "What are you doing here?"
Bagheera let go a low soft purr that kept the man
from coming near He said "I'm Bagheera, the
mighty panther and the jungle is my home I'm free,
free in all I see and that makes me free to roam
Sometimes to feel the music of the jungle it can
cause you pain" And the man heard Bagheera as
the entire jungle joined in the big black cat's
refrain

One dark night the man cub came to the big black
cat afraid The boy was sure that he was dying due
to the endless stream of water that his eyes made

want to die" for these are the ways of men
The boy cried, "Teacher, teacher I don't,
understand this ache within me" The great cat
sighed and (then softly he began) He said,
"Indeed thou art a man's child now and the
world is yours to give and take The time has come
now for your awareness to change forever and
there's a choice for you to make You may remain
here in the jungle and hunt with the free people
Or if you feel the man's God calling you return to
your kind in the village and worship at his
steeple The only thing you must do is what you
feel in your heart is true I will hunt now and
leave you on your own to decide what to do"
The mighty panther went on his hunt Secret Lord of
the jungle beneath the night sky And some say if
you could have seen him then you'd have noticed a
single tear fall from his majestic eye
