Teddy In The Bath Tub
There's a teddy in the bath tub
It's all wet and drippy
His fur is all tangled
And he's very very heavy
Teddy has a dirty paw
The one that I chewed
Along with chocolate and crisps
And other bits of food
His face is all floppy
As water drains from his fluff
Dad won it in a grabber machine
So it's bound to be really tough
Teddy still looks a little sorry
Sat in the empty tub
I'll put him in the washing machine
And it'll give him a really good scrub
Round and round goes teddy
With all those soapy bubbles
I'm waiting for him to be ready
Without him I'm in a mudlle
And when he's done and nice and dry
I'll jump and shout and laugh and smile
And when the day's gone by
I'll rub my tired sleepy eyes
I'll take my ted
My lovely clean ted
And then climb into my bed
