THE PAIN OF THE TEDDY BEAR
I AM A SIMPLE TEDDY BEAR
YET I STILL SUFFER GRIEF
FROM THE EMOTIONS THAT YOU PUT ON ME
I NEVER HAVE RELIEF
WHEN YOU ARE SAD
I FEEL IT TOO
WHEN YOU CRY
IT MAKES ME BLUE
WHEN ANGER MAKES YOU HIT SOMETHING
I'M ALWAYS THERE FOR YOU
I AM A SIMPLE TEDDY BEAR
NO COMPENSATION DO I SEEK
FOR YOU KNOW I'LL LEND AN ATTENT EAR
WHENEVER YOU DO SPEAK
YOU SPEAK STORIES
I HEAR THEM WELL
YOU GET UPSET
AND TIME WILL TELL
SOMETIMES THE PAIN HITS MUCH TO STRONG
AND I DAMN EMOTIONS ALL TO HELL
I AM A SIMPLE TEDDY BEAR
SYMPATHY I DO NOT RECEIVE
THOUGH I AM HERE FOR ALL YOUR PROBLEMS
NO ONE WILL LISTEN TO ME
THERE IS NO EAR
WHEN I SHARE
FOR WHO WOULD LISTEN
TO A TEDDY BEAR
BUT COMPLAIN I DON'T, I ONLY WISH
YOU HANDLE ME WITH CARE
I AM A SIMPLE TEDDY BEAR
EVERYONE'S BEST FRIEND
SOMETIMES IT MAKES ME FEEL DELIGHT
OTHERS I WANT IT TO END
TIME, IT PASSES
YOU WANDER LOOSE
ANOTHER APPEARS
I GROW OBTUSE
AND WHEN YOU THINK YOU'VE MOVED ON WITH YOUR LIFE
I SEEM TO HAVE LOST MY USE
I AM A SIMPLE TEDDY BEAR
PLEASE BE GENTLE
