What happened on October 31st?
Not a lot to say so far this week. Kids are well, Wife and I are getting along, I finally got my Green Belt in TaiKwonDo, so right now all seems good in the world. I missed Heroes last night because we were preparing the house for Halloween. By the way happy Halloween everyone. Hope you don't get sick from all the candy.
Teddy Bears Picnic - Drastic Measures (I have this album! I found it in a delete bin in the mid 80's, Drastic Measures was a late 70's Toronto Pop New Wave Punk ArtRock band that played at the Last Pogo at the Horseshoe.)
(Teddy Bears Picnic composed by John W. Bratton and James B. Kennedy, Note: tune written (as insrumental) 1907; words published 1913)
If you go out in the woods today
You're sure of a big surprise.
If you go out in the woods today
You'd better go in disguise.
For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain, because
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic.
Picnic time for teddy bears,
The little teddy bears are having a lovely time today.
Watch them, catch them unawares,
And see them picnic on their holiday.
See them gaily gather 'bout.
They love to play and shout.
They never have any cares.
At six o'clock their mommies and daddies
Will take them home to bed
Because they're tired little teddy bears.
If you go out in the woods today,
You'd better not go alone.
It's lovely out in the woods today,
But safer to stay at home.
For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain, because
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic
CHORUS
Every teddy bear, that's been good
Is sure of a treat today
There's lots of wonderful things to eat
And wonderful games to play
Beneath the trees, where nobody sees
They'll hide and seek as long as they please
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic
CHORUS
