little plush bunny, don't be sad
you'll only be here for a day
while your boy is gone away
he's a busy little lad ...
(don't fuss about the dust)
little plush bunny, on the shelf
patiently, you wait the day
when your boy will come to play
and hug you to himself ...
(to save you from the dust)
little plush bunny, long, you sit
waiting as the years go by
how your boy has grown so high
perhaps, in just a bit ...
(he'll save you from the dust)
little plush bunny, you've been true
all the years you hoped with joy
that, back would come, your little boy
to love and play with you ...
(and save you from the dust)
but ...
little plush bunny, gone is he ...
who once embraced you, oh so tight
held you safely through the night
as comes an end, to boys as he
not made to last, like plush, you see
he can not come to set you free ...
(or save you from the dust)
stay on the shelf ... you must.
