"I Can't Sleep Without My Bear" is the parody of Bon Jovi's, "Livin' On A Prayer," that tells the story of a child whose bear is missing and would simply like his parents to find it so that he does not need to give up sleep forever.

"I Can't Sleep Without My Bear"
Tommy slept with Daddy and Mom.
But he kicked them at night; Daddy's patience was gone.
It's tough.
So tough.
So they bought Tommy a bed of his own,
With a bear on the pillow, so he wouldn't be alone.
It's stuffed.
The bear was stuffed.
Mommy said, "You gotta hold on to what you've got."
"You want to take your bear out, but I'd rather not."
"You might leave it at the store or it might get dropped."
My mom was right.
But it was worse than she thought.
Woah - It's not fair.
Woah - I can't sleep without my bear.
Go ahead and pull out your hair.
Woah - I'll scream until I get my bear.
Tommy kept him mom up all night.
And his daddy was so tired that he couldn't stand up right,
All day.
Wasn't okay.
Mommy tried to find the bear on the phone,
Calling all the places we went since we left home.
No luck.
They're stuck.
"Why couldn't you just hold on to what you've got."
Mom is tired and she's angry and her nerves are shot.
I don't want any new bear, I want the one I got,
For bed.
I won't even lie my head down.
Woah - It's not fair.
Woah - I can't sleep without my bear.
Go ahead and pull out your hair.
Woah - I'll scream until I get my bear.
Scream without my bear!
Daddy said I gotta go to sleep - bear or not.
But it's been 3 whole nights and I ain't gonna stop!
Woah - It's not fair.
Woah - I can't sleep without my bear.
Go ahead and pull out your hair.
Woah - I'll scream until I get my bear.
