Enter Sandman

Original Lyrics

Say your prayers little one
Don’t forget, my son
To include everyone
Tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
Till the sandman he comes
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We’re off to never never land
Something’s wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren’t of snow white
Dream of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragon’s fire
And of things that will bite
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We’re off to never never land
Now I lay me down to sleep
Pray the lord my soul to keep
If I die before i wake
Pray the lord my soul to take
Hush little baby, don’t say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It’s just the beast under your bed
In your closet, in your head
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We’re off to never never land

Lyrics: live 1996/04/12

Say your prayers little one

Don't forget, my son

To include everyone

Tuck you in, warm within

Keep you free from sin

Till the sandman he comes

Sleep with one eye open

Gripping your pillow tight

Exit light

Enter night

Take my hand

We're off to never never land

Something's wrong, shut the light

Heavy thoughts tonight

And they aren't of snow white

Dream of war, dreams of liars

Dreams of dragon's fire

And of things that will bite

Sleep with one eye open

Gripping your pillow tight

Exit light

Enter night

Take my hand

We're off to never never land

Now I lay me down to sleep

Pray the lord my soul to keep

If I die before i wake

Pray the lord my soul to take

Hush little baby, don't say a word

And never mind that noise you heard

It's just the beast under your bed

In your closet, in your head

Exit light

Enter night

Grain of sand

Exit light

Enter night

Take my hand

We're off to never never land
