Lyrics:
Say your prayers, little one, don't forget, my son
To include everyone
I tuck you in, warm within, keep you free from sin
'Til the Sandman, he comes
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Something's wrong, shut the light, heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of Snow White
Dreams of war, dreams of liars, dreams of dragons' fire
And of things that will bite, yeah
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Yeah-hah
Now, I lay me down to sleep (Now, I lay me down to sleep)
Pray the Lord my soul to keep (Pray the Lord my soul to keep)
If I die before I wake (If I die before I wake)
Pray the Lord my soul to take (Pray the Lord my soul to take)
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It's just the beasts under your bed
In your closet, in your head
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land

Lemmy is so amazing that he passed away in 2015 and still releases music in 2023, a true legend
-
Your legacy continues Lemmy, We will never let it die! We love and miss you dearly, Til we meet again. Motörhead will be played loud and proud!
-
I love how the Heavy Metal warrior was the child's protector!
-
You know you've done something right when you can cover a song by a band that you very much influenced. RIP LEMMY.
-
Lemmy and Motörhead still rocks at this days, hail lemmy
-
Must be such an honor for Hetfield & co to hear those great covers from their heroes. Metallica were always open about their influences like Motor- & Diamondhead while paying them homage with their covers. Them returning the favor is just awesome!
-
Even if you don't like metal, you have to admit that this is art at its best. Motörhead for life
-
The Best Enter Sandman Cover i ever heard! Rock in Peace Lemmy!
-
I love how intimidating the dad looks but he's actually a really good dad, tucking his kid into bed and making sure he's all comfy. Probably a dad who doesn't show much emotion but clearly shows through his actions that he loves his son. Also, his walking animation makes me crack up for zero reason.
-
Lemmy's voice was perfect for Metallica covers, and it's really cool to see Snaggletooth animated!
-
The song is a classic and Lemmy's voice is legendary but whoever made this animated video...just wow. Such a surreal horror setting
-
Making music from beyond the grave. Legend. He’s my inspiration to learn bass guitar and possibly make a band and make good music again for the world. RIP Lemmy. May god bless your soul. ❤️✝️❤️🔥🎸
-
I don’t know why they dropped the video after such a long time, but I’m glad they did! It’s great! Motörhead will never die!
-
Saxon n Motorhead. Brothers in Rock. We all miss you Lemmy
-
So much work that is still coming out almost a decade after Lemmy's passing, Metal legends never die they just keep doing encores that never got released before passing.
-
Man! I literally felt goosebumps when I heard Lemmy's voice again! Hail Lemmy! Motorhead forever!🤘🏻
-
Had the great pleasure of seeing ( and then drinking) with Motörhead many many years ago.. Absolute legends..
-
When a short music animation clip has better character designs than 80% of modern cartoons:
-
Who ever isn`t headbanging to this one , has no soul. Let it riiiiiiiiiip
-
Lemmy’s voice gives this cover a quality that I prefer over the original. RIP man, I wish I had been alive for your heyday…
