Teddy Bear Song Lyrics - Norma Jean

I wish I had button eyes and a red felt nose 

Shaggy cotton skin and just one set of clothes 

Sittin' on the shelf in the local department store 

With no dreams to dream and nothing to be sorry for 

I wish I was a Teddy Bear not livin' nor lovin' or goin' 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 smile 

Then your mem'ry 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' nor lovin' or goin' nowhere... 

I wish I had a string you'd 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 in my life 

I wish I was a Teddy Bear not livin' nor lovin' or goin' nowhere... 

I'm wishin' I hadn't fallen in love with you
