My friend - Big Ted!

What\'s the magic of the tidy toy box?

That\'s what I\'d like to know

Because every time I leave grandma\'s and it\'s time to go

I leave my toys in such a mess and disarray

But when I return they are all neatly tidied away!

Dad says it\'s grandma

But I know this is a tale too far!

See Big Ted, the one who sits on top,looking sweet

Well it\'s him who keeps the box orderly and neat,

I know because we talked about it

Well I talked - he listened- but he didn\'t disagree one bit

When I said \'You\'re the magician, the key to it all

It\'s you who tidies up after I call.\'

Mum says it\'s grandad

But I know in truth that idea\'s mad!

Big Ted, the one who sits on top, waiting for me to play,

He\'s the one who puts all the toys away

I know because we talked about it

Well I talked - he listened- but he didn\'t disagree one bit!

Big Ted and the other toys say it\'s him - they all agree

And I know because he made a secret wink at me!
