THE TEDDY BEAR SONG   (Nick Nixon - Don Earl)   « © '72 Champion Music »      I wish I had button eyes and red fat nose   A shaggy cotton skin and just one set of clothes   Sittin' on the shelf in the local department store   With no dreams to dream and nothin' to be sorry for   I wish I was a Teddy Bear not living nor loving nor going nowhere   I wish I was a Teddy Bear and I'm wishin' I hadn't fallen in love with you   I wish I had a wooden heart and a sawdust mind   Then your mem'ry wouldn't come around to hurt 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...   I wish I had a string you'd pull to make me say hi I'm Teddy ain't that a lovely day   Then I'd know everytime I've spoke the words were right   And no one would know the mess I made in my life   I wish I was a Teddy Bear...   And I'm wishin' I hadn't fallen in love with you
