I'm glad to meet you! I'm hopefully lost. I was accidentally abandoned here. You're thinking I look adorable, But trust me, I'm sadder than I appear. Dear stranger, I beg you, string me up So that I can be easily found. Yikes, look at me! I'm as dirty as a pig. I'm so tired of lying on the ground. I wish to return as soon as possible To a little girl crying her eyes out. I'm drifting farther and farther from home. The wind keeps blowing me about. Dear stranger, I don't want to be replaced. Help me get back where I belong, Lest I'm completely forgotten; my bond With my toddler friend is just too strong.
