Teddy Bear Song

I wish I had button eyes and a red felt nose

Shaggy cotton skin

And just one set of clothes

Sitting on a shelf in a local department store

With no dreams to dream and nothing to be sorry for

I wish I was a teddy bear

Not living or loving nor going nowhere

I wish I was a teddy bear and I'm wishing that I hadn't fallen in love with you

Wish I had a wooden heart and a sawdust smile

Then your memory wouldn't come around hurting all the time

I'd have a sewed on smile and a painted twinkle in my eye

And I never would have ever had to learn how to cry

I wish I was a teddy bear

Not living or loving nor going nowhere

I wish I was a teddy bear and I'm wishing I hadn't fallen in love with you

I wish I had a string you could pull to make me say

Hi I'm Teddy isnt it a lovely day

Then I know every time I spoke the words were right

No one would know the mess I made of my life

I wish I was a teddy bear

Not living or loving nor going nowhere

I wish I was a teddy bear

And I'm wishing I hadn't fallen in love with you

And I'm wishing that I hadn't fallen in love with you
