_ [E] _ _ I'm an old teddy bear, [D] as nice as that
[Dbm] And [B] every time I'm going to make some noise, [G]
I start laughing
[E] I learned that from [Gbm] Marianne, she's the one I mean
[Eb] And no one can be as [E] naughty as Marianne and I
[Abm] When Marianne has put [A] me to bed, and I know it's night
I make noise, [Eb] I show [Abm] I've made myself
[E] And I can sing [A] an old melody
[Ab] [Eb] Because when I was big, I won [E] at Circus Tivoli
It was a big Tivoli, [Gbm] with lights and music
[Eb] And I was sick of [E] loneliness, every time the carousel went
I thought I would hope [A] the one who wins me tonight
[B] Has enough money to take me with her, and drive the [Ab] [Gm] carousel
[Abm] Then a little girl came along, [A] and that was _ Marianne
She's full of money, [E] and I'm brown and small
She bought a lot of songs, [Gbm] and I thought no, no
[Ebm] So she has to [E] drive the carousel with [Gm] you
[E] But _
_ [Gbm] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [B] _ _
_ [E] _ [Gbm] _ [E] _ [D] _ [E] suddenly I'm so confused, [A] because do you know what she said?
Now I have no [E] money left, and I'm just as happy
I was in a trance when I heard [Gbm] it, and didn't think of me
[B] Then I'd rather be won [E] by a richer than you
[Abm] Because many bought a lot of [A] me, and in the end an old man
And I've never seen so [Abm] much money as he did
[E] But one of his spares, [A] I thought I'd get a whole
[Gbm] He's saved just like him, and [E] I can drive the carousel
And when I was to be pulled, [Gbm] do you know who won [Bm] me then?
Yes, [Eb] it was the one with the money, [E] and ask if I'm happy
Then I'll drive the [A] carousel, but do you know what I got?
[D] A [B] piece of paper around my stomach, [Ab] before he took me [E] with him
I [Abm] wasn't even packed, [A] he put me on a cart
And I, who [Gbm] thought rich [Abm] bums had it so good
[E] Then it would have been [A] better to be won by a friend
[Eb] Who doesn't own [Ab] money, but who [E] loves you
I _ _ _
_ [Db] _ [Gbm] _ _ _ [Dm] _ [B] _ _
_ [E] _ [Eb] _ _ [D] _ [E] was like that for a long time, [Gbm] but one day he took me down
[B] And put me in his car, [E] and drove me to a place
Yes, it's almost [Gbm] strange that she can do such things
[B] But the one who packed me [E] was little Marian
And he was her best father, [A] and took her by the hand
Now you'll get a teddy bear, in your birthday [Abm] present
[E] And Marian was [Bb] eleven, [A] she danced and sang
[Abm] And I got to [B] spin around and [E] around for the first time
And since I spin [A] almost more than [Gbm] I want
[Eb] And Marian is not the one [E] who leaves me lying [A] still
[E] Slaves with their pockets full, [A] and their hair all messy
[Eb] But that doesn't matter, [Em] I'm [Ebm] happy
[E] Because [Abm] if I lose big things, [A] like a hat or a leg
Marian takes a syringe, [Abm] and puts it [E] back on
And it's much better, [Gbm] than to be put away somewhere
[B] With a silk ribbon around your neck, [E] and never be with you _ _ _
