Please Don't Think It's Funny
Please Don't Think It's Funny
Words and Music by Fred Rogers
Sometimes you feel like holding your pillow all night long
Sometimes you hold your teddy bear tightly,
He's old but he's still strong.
And sometimes you want to snuggle up closely with your own Mom and Dad.
At night, you even need the light sometimes,
But that's not bad.
Please don't think it's funny
when you want an extra kiss.
There are lots and lots of people who sometimes feel like this.
Please don't think it's funny
When you want the ones you miss.
There are lots and lots of people
Who sometimes feel like this
It's great to know you're growing up bigger every day,
But somehow things you like to remember are often put away
And sometimes you wonder over and over if you should stay inside
When you enjoy a younger toy, you never need to hide
In the long, long trip of growing there are stops along the way
For thoughts of all the good things and the look of yesterday
For the chance to fill our feelings with comfort and with ease
And then tell the new tomorrow,
You can come now when you please
So please don't think it's funny, when you want an extra kiss.
There are lots and lots of people who sometimes feel like this.
There are lots and lots of people who sometimes feel like this.
