I WISH I HAD

BUTTON EYES

AND A

RED FELT 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 NOTHING TO BE

SORRY FOR

I WISH I WAS

A TEDDY BEAR

NOT LIVIN' OR LOVIN'

NOR GOING NOWHERE

I WISH I WAS

A TEDDY BEAR

AND I'M WISHIN'

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

I'D HAVE A SEWED ON

SMILE

AND A PRETTY TWINKLE

IN MY EYE

AND I NEVER

WOULD'VE EVER

HAD TO LEARN

HOW TO CRY

I WISH I WAS

A TEDDY BEAR

NOT LIVIN' OR LOVIN'

NOR GOING NOWHERE

I WISH I WAS

A TEDDY BEAR

AND I'M WISHIN'

THAT I HADN'T

FALLEN IN LOVE

WITH YOU

MODULATION

I WISH I HAD A STRING

YOU COULD PULL

TO MAKE ME SAY

HI I'M TEDDY

AIN'T IT A LOVELY DAY

THEN I'D KNOW

EVERYTIME I SPOKE

THE WORDS

WERE RIGHT

AND NO ONE

WOULD KNOW

THE MESS I MADE

OF MY LIFE

I WISH I WAS

A TEDDY BEAR

NOT LIVIN' OR LOVIN'

NOR GOING NOWHERE

I WISH I WAS

A TEDDY BEAR

AND I'M WISHIN'

THAT I HADN'T

FALLEN IN LOVE

WITH YOU

AND I'M WISHIN'

THAT I HADN'T

FALLEN IN LOVE

WITH YOU
