Teddy Bear Texas

He was a teddy bear
Doing teddy bear time
In a teddy bear prison
For a teddy bear crime
Never meant to go wrong
But the urge was strong
He offed barbie dolls
'Cause one strung him along
He loved her madly
But she ran around with Ken
He didn't like to lose
His compulsion was to win
It all got out of control
Way rage usually does
He had his pride
She made a fool of who he was

Teddy bear tears
This bear didn't mean to turn bad
Living in a room
With a little girl who had bad dreams
Learning about life and love
Came from the TV screens
Between scenes losing track
Of when madness went mad
Let me be your teddy bear
A memory from his head
Guess it doesn't matter
Because the King is dead

He got carried away
Much more than he meant
He saw her face every place he went
Too many Barbies
Once he started no way to stop
A way of triangles
When you fall from the top
It was all too easy
He kept getting away clean
He ran up a score
To three or four dozen or more
An unexplainable rush
Like a powerful dream
He felt like a bear again
Waging an avengers war

Carelessness tripped him up
In pursuit of the high
Jack in the box surprised his act
No way he could lie
One of the parents busted him
With Barbie hair in his fur
A major mess up was in hanging out
Where the Barbies were
No trial no judge no jury
For his capital offence
No one to hear his side
No way to present a defence
A one way trip to the garbage can
When justice reacted
The executioner's song
In the morning he'll be compacted

Teddy bear tears
This bear didn't mean to turn bad
Living in a room with a little girl
Who had bad dreams
Learning about life and love
Came from the TV screens
Between scenes losing track of
When madness went mad
Let me be your teddy bear
A memory from his head
Guess it doesn't matter because
The King is dead
