Take your scissors and take your time
And cut along the dotted line
And follow closely my design
For I want to be what I'm cut out to be
Give me kisses warm and sweet
And dream about me while you sleep
And all your secrets I will keep
For I want to be what I'm cut out to be
Keep me with you all the time
And don't leave me alone
For a restless wind may come along
Just one puff and I'll be gone
Keep your scissors close at hand
And trim my edges now and then
And fit me in with all your plans
For I want to be what I'm cut out to be
For I want to be what I'm cut out to be
