goodnight moon ☛ shivaree





goodnight moon


there's a shark in the pool
& a witch in the tree
a crazy old neighbor & he's been watching me
& there's footsteps loud & strong coming down the hall
something's under the bed
now it's out in the hedge
there's a big black crow sitting on my window ledge
& i hear something scratching through the wall

oh what should i do i'm just a little baby
what if the lights go out & maybe
i just hate to be all alone
outside the door he followed me home
now goodnight moon
i want the sun
if it's not here soon
i might be done
no it won't be too soon 'til i say
goodnight moon

well you're up so high
how can you save me
when the dark comes here
tonight to take me up
to my front walk & into bed
where it kisses my face
& eats my head
