Once upon a time, there was a boy and a girlI see you there throwin' pebbles at my window
It's 12 o'clock, what you doin' up?
It's late for me yet, something draws me closerBut daddy's home, just my luck
Wanna hear your voice before I close my eyes
But baby, you better think twiceBefore you come around and tell me
Bedtime stories, better think twice
Before you come around and tell those bedtime stories
Better take daddy's adviceAs much as I like a little danger
I have some rules by which I must abide
So, listen up if you want to have a future
Take it from me, you'd better run and hideSee you at school
I'll catch you on the playground
But don't look my way when the sun goes downBefore you come around and tell me
Bedtime stories, better think twice
Before you come around and tell those bedtime stories
Better take daddy's adviceI know we're much to young for love
So, baby let's take it slowly, ya, yaDon't you come around telling bedtime stories
Don't come around telling me those bedtime storiesWanna hear your voice before I close my eyes
But baby, you better think twiceBefore you come around and tell me
Bedtime stories, better think twice
Before you come around and tell those bedtime stories
Better take daddy's advice
