I'm a roly-poly
plump teddy bear
with a lopsided smile
and gold coloured fur
I've lost my growl
and a lot of hair
I'm old and I'm bald
and my fur has gone bare
but I love to be cuddled
and snuggle in bed
I need someone to say
You're my very best Ted
I like listening to stories
to dance and to play
I can keep secrets
and I'll do what you say
I need someone special
a friend just like you
so take care of me
and I'll take care of you.
