Teddy Songtext
von Teenage Dads

Recollect
Disrespect
Over time
You′re never right
Working too hard until they see me

The fuzz chasing me to my backyard
Said, "Come on Officer, I wanna take you on"
I never made it this far

Say ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Say ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Say ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Say ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah


Somebody banging on my old door
Teddy doesn't live here anymore
Teddy gotta tell me what he saw
Teddy doesn′t live here anymore
I said "Teddy, tell me, come on Teddy"
Teddy doesn't live here anymore
I'm not leaving till it′s solved
He doesnt live here anymore

I see the officer there, he stands with his rifle
Fires every bullet in the tank until my belly′s full
I bury my head in my hands and my hands do the dance
As I'm crying for my mother
Carpets full of blood
Never ending flood
"Did you do it son?"
"No I didn′t, no I didn't, no I didn′t, no I didn't"

Say ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Say ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Say ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Say ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah


Somebody banging on my old door
Teddy doesn′t live here anymore
Teddy gotta tell me what he saw
Teddy doesn't live here anymore
I said "Teddy, tell me, come on Teddy"
Teddy doesn't live here anymore
I′m not leaving till it′s solved
He doesnt live here anymore

Time was never on my side
Signs say moving on tonight
And the February sun
All of it is done
Yeah, time was never on my side

Somebody banging on my old door
Teddy doesn't live here anymore
Teddy gotta tell me what he saw
Teddy doesn′t live here anymore
I said "Teddy, tell me, come on Teddy"
Teddy doesn't live here anymore
I′m not leaving till it's solved
He doesnt live here anymore
