When the sun goes down
And the stars twinkle
You're snugly and cuddly and warm in your nest
It's always nice to say goodnight
To the nighty-nite things that we'd like best

Nighty-nite to little socks
You fit so snug and you warm our toes
Nighty-nite to the big clocks
When it's time for bed, you're the one that knows
Ticktock, ticktock, ticktock, shh

Nighty-nite to the bright light
You're the one we need when it's time to read
But now it's time for bed
So we'll turn you off instead

Oh, bedtimes just wouldn't be the same
If a nighty-nite things weren't here
Say goodnight and we close our eyes
When we wake up they appear

Nighty-nite to rocking chair
For rockabyes you're always there
Nighty-nite soft cuddly friends
To zebras, duck and teddy bears

They make funny sounds

Nighty-nite to play shoes
When we run and jump you're on our feet
Nighty-nite to Blankey
Our snugly friends so warm and sweet
Oh, if we could we'd sing nighty-nite to everything

Oh, bedtimes just wouldn't be the same
If a nighty-nite things weren't here
Say goodnight and we close our eyes
When we wake up they appear

When the sun goes down
And the stars twinkle
You're snugly and cuddly and warm in your nest
It's always nice to say goodnight
To the nighty-nite things that we'd like best
