Dog stole things I needed bad Cats took what I never had Pillows for my aching head A glass of milk next to my bed The creatures that seem oh so kind Then sleep all day and ease your mind at night they softly pad along and look to steal things that you own So now I lay me down to sleep I pray the lord that I might keep my soul for one more night or two and hope the creatures never do The creatures that seem oh so kind Then sleep all day and ease your mind at night they softly pad along and look to steal things that you own
