12.The Teddy Bear Song

Lyricist:Earl Don, Nick Nixon

Well, I wish I had button eyes and red fat nose
Shaggy cotton skin and just one set of clothes
Sittin' on a shelf in a local department store
With no dreams to dream and nothin' to be sorry for

I wish I was, a Teddy Bear
No living or loving, nor going nowhere
I wish I was, a Teddy Bear
And I wish that I hadn't fallen in love with you

I wish I had a wooden heart and a sawdust mind
Then your memory wouldn't come around hurtin' all the time
With a sewed on smile and a painted twinkle in my eye
Then I never would've ever had to learn how to cry

I wish I was, a Teddy Bear
No living or loving, nor going nowhere
I wish I was, a Teddy Bear
And I wish that I hadn't fallen in love with you

I wish I had a string you could pull to make me say
What you wanna hear from me to make you stay
I'd know everytime I spoke the words were right
And no one would know what a mess I made of my life

I wish I was, a Teddy Bear
No living or loving, nor going nowhere
I wish I was, a Teddy Bear
And I wish that I hadn't fallen in love with you

I wish I was, a Teddy Bear
No living or loving, nor going nowhere
I wish I was, a Teddy Bear
