Enter Sandman Lyrics

Enter Sandman lyrics

original version available on 'METALLICA') 

  

 Say your prayers little one 

 don't forget, my son 

 to include everyone 

  

 I fuck 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 (what is it) 

 enter night 

 take my hand 

 off to never never land 

  

 something's wrong, shut the light 

 heavy thoughts tonight 

 and they aren't of snow white 

  

 dreams 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 (come on) 

 enter night 

 take my hand 

 off to never never land 

  

 (Put your hands together) 

  

 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 (come on) 

 enter night 

 grain of sand 

  

 exit light 

 enter night 

 take my hand 

 we're off to never never land
