So a little fun story; Onne originally wanted to arrange a song called “Teddy Bear’s Picnic” from Henry Hall, but after realizing that he had very little to add to this song, he searched for a new song to arrange. Because Onne often seriously lacks creativity, we ended up with a song with an incredibly similar title. Agathe decided to troll with the lyrics though, and because she find the idea of offering oneself as a teddy bear to a lover quite creepy, she decided to give the lyrics a cynical, downright dark twist. Who says being a teddy bear is a cakewalk?

Lyrics:
Dear owner let me be
Your slaving teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck
And yank me anywhere
Until I choke
That’s a good teddy bear
I don’t wanna have no freedom
‘Cause freedom’s for the lones
I just wanna feel your warm look
Twenty-four/seven on my flesh and bones
That’s why I wanna be
Your teddy bear
Squeeze the stuffing out of me
Until I’m out of air
Then stitch me back
Zombie teddy bear
Dear owner let me get
In your washing machine
‘Til I lose my button eyes
On every cleansing spin
‘Til I can’t see
Blind zombie teddy bear
And one day when you grow older
And I’m too lame for you
Stack me good in a dumpster
And go amuse yourself with something new
But ’til then let me be
Your teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck
And yank me anywhere
Until I choke
That’s a good teddy bear
And ’til I die
That’s a dead teddy bear
‘Cause humans are meant to be teddy bears
