Teddybears

Teddybear Poems

When Goldilocks Went to the House of the Bears

Chorus:
When Goldilocks went to the house of the bears
Oh, what did her blue eyes see?

1.	A bowl that was huge and a bowl that was small,
And a bowl that was tiny and that was all,
And she counted them- one, two, three.

2.	A chair that was huge and a chair that was small, etc.

3.	A bed that was huge and a bed that was small, etc.

4.	A bear that was huge and a bear that was small,
And a bear that was tiny and that was all,
And they growled at her - ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!

When Bathtime Comes
When bathtime comes
My teddy cries
He says the soap
Gets in his eyes

Fuzzy Wuzzy
Fuzzy Wuzzy
Was a bear
Fuzzy Wuzzy
Had no hair
Fuzzy Wuzzy
Wasn't fuzzy
Was he?

B was once a little bear
Beary
Wairy
Hairy
Beary
Taky cary,
Little Bear!
Edward Lear

Round and round the garden
Like a teddybear
One step
Two step
Tickle you under there.
