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 NOTHIN' TO BE
SORRY FOR
I WISH I WAS
A TEDDY BEAR
NOT LIVIN' OR LOVIN'
OR GOIN' 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 PAINTED
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'
OR GOIN' 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 STRING
YOU COULD PULL
TO MAKE ME SAY
HI I'M TEDDY
AIN'T IT A LOVELY DAY
THEN I'D KNOW
EVERY TIME 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'
OR GOIN' 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
