Ted

Boys and Girls of Every Year
Listen close don’t live in fear
Underneath you can view
A monster stares and looks at you
Noises from and far below
Something grabbing for your toe
But have you just your teddy bear
Grab it put it under there
Brave and brown big and strong
Monsters won’t be there for long
Your Ted will fight and risk its life
To keep you safe and far from strife
So keep your teddy by your side
He’ll keep you safe, no need to hide
