It's No Picnic

If you go down in the woods today,

Oh, there’s a surprise for you!

If you go down in the woods today,

You’ll need your W-2.

For every bear who heeds the bear laws

Has coffee brewed and ink on his paws.

Today’s the day the teddy bears do their taxes!

Every teddy bear who’s been good

Is hoping for money back.

They’re filing early just like they should

To make the “No Audit” stack.

Upon the line, they date and they sign.

They hope next year the rate will decline.

Oh that’s the way the teddy bears do their taxes!

Taxes time for teddy bears!

The tired teddy bears are filling out tons of forms today!

Watch them write off fur repairs,

And claim exemptions for their fluff decay!

See them take a work expense--

Twelve bucks and forty cents

For tables and tiny chairs!

At six o’clock accountants and lawyers will take the forms away,

Because they’re due to the bear upstairs.

If you go down in the woods today, 

You’ll need a ledger and pen.

It’s frantic down in the woods today,

File all your receipts again!

For every bear from Ruxpin to Gund

Is hoping for a massive refund!

Today’s the day the teddy bears do their taxes!
