[Intro]

[Verse I]
Say your prayers little one
Don't forget, my son
To include everyone

[Verse II]
I tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
Till the sandman he comes

[Bridge to Refrain]
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight

[Refrain I]
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Off to never never land

[Verse III]
Something's wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of snow white

[Verse IV]
Dreams of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragon's fire
And off things that will bite

[Bridge to Refrain]
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight

[Refrain I]
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Off to never never land

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse V]
(This is sang with an echo of a child) 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

[Verse VI]
Hush little baby, don't say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It's just the beasts under your bed,
In your closet, in your head

[Refrain II]
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand

[Refrain I]
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Off to never never land

[Outro]
Yeah he he he

Yeah yeah

Ohhhoh

[an echo of this is in the ending]
Take my hand
We're off to never never land
Take my hand
We're off to never never land
We're off to never never land
We're off to never never land
We're off to never never land
We're off to never never land
