Teddy Bear Ball
Dream a little dream, happy little scene
Teddy bears waltz
Full of fluffy charm, dancing arm in arm
Pudgy and soft
Swirling as they gaze in each other's eyes
Softly padded paws gliding swiftly by
You can see it all
There at the Teddy Bear Ball

Cheery little cubs giggle then they blush
Each time they see
Mom and daddy bear dancing cheek to cheek
So tenderly
Papa in a tux, whirling mom around
Orchid on her wrist, flowing satin gown
You can see it all
There at the Teddy Bear Ball

They lift their tiny cups to a bowl of punch
And sweetly pour
Then they fill their plates with the honey cakes
Bears all adore
Merrily they chat, share each other's snacks
Give each other hugs, pat each other's backs
You can see it all
There at the Teddy Bear Ball
Bouncy little bears playing in the band
Smile with each song
While conductor bear waving his baton
Sings right along
One bear on the drums, two accordions
Three to toot the horns, four on violins
You can see it all
There at the Teddy Bear Ball

Dream, dream, sweetest you've seen
Lullabies lifting spirits high
Dream, dream, so serene
As teddy bears go waltzing by

Dream a little dream, happy little scene
Teddy bears waltz
Full of fluffy charm, dancing arm in arm
Pudgy and soft
Swirling as they gaze in each other's eyes
Softly padded paws gliding swiftly by
You can see it all
There at the Teddy Bear Ball
You can see it all
There at the Teddy Bear Ball
