“Enter Sandman” Lyrics - Metallica

Lyrics

“Enter Sandman”


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


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

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 beasts 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
