'It's time for bed,' said Mummy.
     'Yes, it's time for bed,' said Dad -
And, yes, when children hear these words,
     They often make them sad.

​

They want the day to carry on;
     They want more time with friends,
And children feel a little sad
     When the day comes to its end.

​

But then the yawning takes its hold,
     And tiredness starts to spread,
And, oh, yawn yawn: 'I'm feeling tired,
     And want to go to bed.'

​

You're glad you have a nice warm bed,
     And into it you'll creep.
Another yawn, you shut your eyes,
     And soon are fast asleep.

​

All creatures of the day must sleep
     When daytime turns to night,
And night creatures begin their lives
     Beneath the pale moonlight.

​

Then, when the darkness disappears,
      And our world's lit by the sun,
It's time for them to go to bed
     And your turn to have fun.
