Bullseye - a Notable Horse

Bullseye, a faithful companion,
Met Woody at a fork in the road.
He's the ultimate horsey champion!
A child's heart is his abode.

The Prospector, Jessie and He
Were going to live forever on display.
Only through clear glass they'd see
Children every day.

What a sad existence!
Bullseye likes his adventures.
It's only through Woody's insistence
That Bullseye's now part of somebody's treasure.

Bullseye is clunky, funky and fun.
He prompts smiles from ear to ear.
He'll happily play in rain, hail and sun
If he knows it will bring cheer!

He's awakened so many imaginations!
Will he be a hero, this time, or a villain?
Will he feature as a talented singing sensation?
Will he drink Ribena by the pool whilst chillin'? 

Bullseye can be whatever character you desire.
You can cherish him your whole life through.
He's a toy story that will continue to inspire.
Is he a notable horse to you?
