I went to a party mom,I remember what you said.
You told me not to drink,mom,so I drank soda instead
I really felt proud inside, mom,the way you said I would.
I didn't drink and drive, mom, even though the others said I should.
I know I did the right thing,mom,I know you are always right.
Now the party is finally ending,mom,as everyone is driving
out of sight.
As I got into my car,mom,I knew I'd get home in one piece.
because of the way you raised me,so responsible and sweet.
I started to drive away,mom,but as I pulled out into the road,
the other car didn't see me, mom,and hit me like a load.
As I lay there on the pavement,mom,I hear the policeman say
the other guy is drunk,mom,and now I'm the one who will pay.
I'm lying here dying,mom..I wish you'd get here soon.
How could this happen to me,mom? My life just burst like a balloon.
There is blood all around me,mom,and most of it is mine.
I heard the medic say,mom,I'll die in a short time.
I just wanted to tell you,mom,I swear I didn't drink.
It was the others,mom.The others didn't think.
He was probably at the same party as I.
The only difference is,he drank and I will die.
Why do people drink,mom? It can ruin your whole life.
I'm feeling sharp pains now. Pains just like a knife.
The guy who hit me is walking,mom,and I don't think it's fair.
I'm lying here dying and all he can do is stare.
Tell my broher not to cry,mom,tell Daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven,mom,put "Daddy's Girl"on my grave
Someone should have told him,mom,not to drink and drive.
If only they had told him,mom,I would still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter,mom.I'm becoming very scared.
Please don't cry for me,mom,When I needed you,you were always there.
I have one last question,mom,before I say goodbye.
I didn't drink and drive,so why am I the one to die?
Teddy,I've been bad again,
When I woke up this morning,
I tried my best to be real good,
But I spilt milk on my good shirt,
Cause she hit me awful hard,you see,
When I said,"I love you,Mommy,"
So I came up here to talk to you,
And I don't think my Mommy means,
So Teddy,I wish you were real,
To please try hard to understand.
And if we could make them listen,
But for now,I guess I'll hold you tight,
My mommy told me so;
I'm not quite sure what I did wrong,
But I thought that you might know.
I know that she was mad;
Cause she was crying awful hard,
And yelling at my dad.
And do just what she said;
I cleaned my room all by myself,
I even made my bed.
When she yelled at me to hurry;
And I guess she didn't hear me,
When I told her I was sorry.
And called me funny names;
And told me I was really bad,
And I should be ashamed!
I guess she didn't understand;
Cause she yelled at me to shut my mouth.
Or I'd get smacked again.
Please tell me what to do;
Cause I really love my Mommy,
And I know she loves me,to.
To hit me quite so hard;
I guess sometimes,grown ups forget.
How really big they are!
And you weren't just a bear;
Then you could help me find a way.
To tell Mommies every where.
How sad it makes us feel;
Cause the outside pain soon goes away,
But the inside never heals!
Maybe then they'd understand;
So other children just like me,
Wouldn't have to hurt again.
And pretend the pain's not there;
I know you'd never hurt me,
So goodnight,Teddy Bear!
