My Stuffed Teddy - The Teddy Bears Picnic


I have a little secret that I promised not to tell
It’s hidden in the garden at the bottom of the well
We wrapped it in a blanket
And tied it very tight
And dropped it down there slowly
On a dark and stormy night

Me and my friend Billy, well we had to put it there
To protect it from some greedy bears
Who really just don’t care

We go and check it when we can
To see if it is safe
It has to stay there for a while
Until our special day

We call our friends and set a date
Then we shop and bake a cake
That day at dawn, we creep outside
Down to the well and we check inside

Our secret is there, we have saved the day!
We pull it up and take it away
The day is fine and the garden is ready
We bring out our secret and give some to each teddy

You see, on our special picnic day
It wound be rather funny
To have a teddies picnic day
Without a giant jar of honey

So please don’t tell a greedy bear
About our hiding place so near
Because of course we’ll have to do it
All again next year!

My Stuffed Teddy-Old Ted

My Stuffed Teddy - Old Ted


Down a winding cobbled lane
In a quiet country town
In a little junk shop window
Sits a teddy with a frown

He is very old and ragged
And he is falling all apart
He’s so very sad and lonely
That it breaks his teddy’s heart

He wasn’t always like this
He use to be quite smart
Once he was a new bear
Held close to someone’s heart

His fur was thick and curly
His arms and legs were strong
His glass eyes shone so brightly
In the years when he was young

He thinks about the life he’s had
While he sits there all day long
It was mainly good and a little bad
But he always did belong

One night while on a ship at sea
He was woken suddenly
And put into a lifeboat
On a night of tragedy

He fought a war in a tiger moth
Flying high up in the sky
He spent some time in hospital
Where a nurse fixed up his eye

He went back home to England
He had parties to attend
He never ventured far away
From his lifelong friend

When many nights of darkness fell
And the bombs came raining down
He was taken to a safer place
Underneath the ground
They laughed and sang and had some fun
To keep up the spirits of everyone

After many years of love and hugs
And being taken everywhere
He was left one day on a ferry boat
That left him in despair

He sat up in the window
With the captain every day
As all the big ships came to port
While he crossed the bay each way

His owners never claimed him
Which made him feel quite sad
So he went home with the captain
Then he didn’t feel so bad

He stayed for many years
Until the captain passed away
When he cried his teddy tears
He was all alone again

Someone packed him in a big brown box
And put him in a truck
He was taken to the junk yard shop
And that’s where he’s been stuck

So if you’re passing by one day
Please take him to your home
He looks old, worn and tattered
And he doesn’t like to be alone
