Enter: night
Mr Sandman, bring us a dream
Dreams of dragon’s fire
In your closet, in your head
Sleep with one eye open
Don’t have nobody to call my own
Would be so peachy before we’re too old
It’s just the beasts under your bed
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
Dreams of war, dreams of liars
And they aren’t of Snow White
Mr Sandman, bring us, please, please, please
Say your prayers, little one
Gripping your pillow tight
If I die before I wake
Make him the cutest that I’ve ever seen
Take my hand
(Someone to hold)
Please turn on your magic beam
Don’t have nobody to call my own
Exit: light
Make him the cutest that I’ve ever seen
Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci
And lots of wavy hair like Liberace
Don’t forget, my son
Give him a pair of eyes with a come-hither gleam
To include everyone
Tuck you in, warm within
Pray the Lord my soul to keep
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over
Sleep with one eye open
And of things that will bite
(Yes)
Take my hand
Heavy thoughts tonight
We’re off to never never land
Now I lay me down to sleep
So please turn on your magic beam
Sandman, I’m so alone
Give him two lips like roses and clover
Mr. Sandman bring us a dream
We’re off to never never land
Enter: night
Please turn on your magic beam
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
Grain of sand
Keep you free from sin
And never mind that noise you heard
Pray the Lord my soul to take
Gripping your pillow tight
Till the Sandman he comes
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
Something’s wrong, shut the light
Sandman, I’m so alone
Hush little baby, don’t say a word
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
Mr Sandman, someone to hold
We’re off to never never land
Take my hand
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over
Exit: light
