Enter Sandman Lyrics

[Verse]
Say your prayers, little one
Don't forget, my son
To include everyone
Tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
'Til the Sandman, he comes
Bung, bung, bung, bung

[Chorus]
Exit, light
Enter, night
Take my hand
Off to never never land
Bung, bung, bung, bung

[Bridge]
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...

[Chorus]
Exit, light
Enter, night
Grain of sand
Exit, light
Enter, night
Take my hand
We're off to never never land

Genius Annotation

This song is a cover of Metallica’s Enter Sandman done in the style of Mr. Sandman, as performed by The Chordettes. Part of the joke being that the opening notes of the original song’s intro is vocalized in the “bum bum bum” of Mr. Sandman.
