Don't sleep tight but Fear the night Rusty fir claws Scratch your window Old log in the yard Walks and shuts your door Dust from the shelves Raining on the floor Shiver, clutch your Pillow in hands Silver web and twigs Bind your pretty home Roots entangle footsteps Ripping them from the ground Your house tonight will roam Curl up Under trembling blanket Oh, the monstrous trees Carry you away Ugly oaken smiles Grinning through windows Won't let you wake Until the dawn of day Trapped in middle of the woods No neighbours around Trapped with your cozy hut All alone, all is gone Sunrise, and you behold The perfect sight Of the mighty, still and cursed Morning wood
