Teddy, I've been bad
again
My Mommy told me so
I'm not quite sure what I did wrong
But I thought that you might know.
When I woke up this morning
I knew that she was mad
Cause she was crying awful hard
And yelling at my dad.
I tried my best to be real good
And do just what she said
I cleaned my room all by myself
I even made my bed.
But I spilled milk on my good shirt
When she yelled at me to hurry
And I guess she didn't hear me
When I told her I was sorry.
Cause she hit me awful hard, you see
And called me funny names
And told me I was really bad
And I should be ashamed.
When I said I love you Mommy
I guess she didn't understand
Cause she yelled at me to shut my mouth
Or I'd get smacked again.
So I came up here to talk to you
Please tell me what to do
Cause I really love my Mommy
And I know she loves me too.
And I don't think my Mommy means
To hit me quite so hard
I guess sometimes grown ups forget
How really big they are.
So Teddy, I wish you were real
And you weren't just a bear
Then you could help me find a way
To tell Mommies every where.
To please try hard to understand
How sad it makes us feel
Cause the outside pain soon goes a way
But the inside never heals.
And if we could make them listen
Maybe then they'd understand
So other children just like me
Wouldn't have to hurt again
But for now, I guess I'll hold you tight
And pretend the pain's not there
I know you'd never hurt me
So Goodnight, Teddy Bear.
