Shivaree – Goodnight Moon

There’s a nail in the door
And there’s glass on the lawn
Tacks on the floor
And the TV is on
And I always sleep with my guns when you’re gone

There’s a blade by the bed
And a phone in my hand
A dog on the floor
And some cash on the nightstand
When I’m all alone the dreaming stops
And I just count sand

What should I do I’m just a little baby
What if the lights go out and maybe
and then the wind just starts to moan
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

There’s a shark in the pool
And a witch in the tree
A crazy old neighbor and he’s been watching me
And there’s footsteps loud and 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
And I hear something scratching through the wall

What should I do I’m just a little baby
What if the lights go out and maybe
I just hate being 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
And into bed where it kisses my face
And eats my head

What should I do I’m just a little baby
What if the lights go out and maybe
And then the wind just starts to moan
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

No it won’t be too soon ’til I say
Goodnight moon

Shivaree - Goodnight Moon

Prevod na srpski

Laku noć meseče

Vrata su zabravljena
Na travnjaku je staklo
Rajsnedle na podu
I upaljen TV
I uvek spavam sa svojim pištoljima kad ti nisi tu

Pored kreveta je nož
I ruci mi telefon
Pas na podu
I nešto novca na noćnom stočiću
Kad sam sasvim sama sanjanje prestaje
I ja samo brojim zrna peska

Šta da radim, ja sam samo jedna mala bebica
Šta ako se ugase svetla
I možda vetar odjednom počne da zavija
S one strane vrata, pratio me je do kuće

Zato, laku noć meseče
Ja hoću sunce
Ako uskoro ne dođe
Možda nadrljam
Ne neću skoro reći laku noć meseče

U bazenu je ajkula
A veštica na drvetu
Ludi stari komšija, i on me posmatra
A iz hodnika se čuje glasni bat koraka
Nešto je ispod kreveta

Sad je napolju u živici
Velika crna vrana sedi na prozorskoj dasci
I čujem nešto grebe kroz zid

Šta da radim, ja sam samo jedna mala bebica
Šta ako se ugase svetla i možda
Ja samo mrzim da budem sasvim sama
S one strane vrata, pratio me je do kuće

Zato, laku noć meseče
Ja hoću sunce
Ako uskoro ne dođe
Možda nadrljam
Ne neću skoro reći laku noć meseče

Pa ti si gore, tako visoko
Kako bi me mogao spasiti
Kad ovde padne mrak
Večeras, da me odvede
Na stazu ispred moje kuće
I u krevet, gde mi ljubi lice
I glavu mi proždire

Šta da radim, ja sam samo jedna mala bebica
Šta ako se ugase svetla i možda
I onda vetar odjednom počne da zavija
S one strane vrata, pratio me je do kuće

Sad laku noć meseče
Hoću sunce
Ako uskoro ne dođe
Možda nadrljam
Ne, neće biti prerano kad kažem
Laku noć meseče

Ne neće biti prerano kad kažem
Laku noć meseče
