Close your eyes

Have no fear

The monster's gone

He's on the run and your mommy's here



(Chorus)

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy

beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy



Before you go to sleep

Say a little prayer

Every day in every way

It's getting better and better



(Chrous)



Out on the ocean sailing away

I can hardly wait

to see you come of age

but I guess we'll both just have to be patient

Cuz it's a long way to go

A hard row to hoe

Yes it's a long way to go but in the meantime



Before you cross the street

Take my hand

Life is what hapenns to you

While you're busy making other plans



(Chorus)



Before you go to sleep, say a little a prayer

Ev'ry day, in ev'ry way

It's getting better and better



(Chorus)
