It started with a creaking
Of the floorboards
Just after I had heard
The squeaky door
And suddenly I felt a little dizzy
'Cos I wasn't in the attic any more
It all began one sunny
Friday morning
As usual I was sitting on my bed
When all at once
The bedroom door burst open
And someone put their arms
Around my head
What's going on?
Is this a dream?
Now I belong
To The Teddy Bear Team
I was getting used to
Feeling claustrophobic
Hadn't seen the sun
For many years
Hidden underneath
A pile of worn-out toys
Next minute I was
Pulled out by my ears
What's going on?
Is this a dream?
Now I belong
To The Teddy Bear Team
Teddy in the window
What do you see?
A teddy in the window
Smiling at me
Teddy in the window
What do I see?
Lots of happy children
Looking at me
And waving and pointing
And laughing
It's amazing!
I was cold and dusty
Underneath the armchair
Sad because I thought
That I'd been tossed
But on this special day in 2020
I realised that I was only lost
Teddies in the window
Puppies on the roof
Pandas in the letterbox
I'm telling the truth!
Unicorns on buses
Monkeys hanging by their tails
Tigers, lions, elephants
Even tiny snails!
Teddy in the window
What do you see?
A teddy in the window
Smiling at me
Teddy in the window
What do I see?
Lots of happy children
Looking at me
And waving and pointing
And laughing
It's amazing!
(Children's laughter)
