Goodnight Moon - Sharvee

Goodnight Moon - Shivaree
There's a nail in the door
And there's glass on the lawn
Tacks on the floor
And the TV is on
And I always sleep with my guns when you're gone
There's a blade by the bed
And a phone in my hand
A dog on the floor
And some cash on the nightstand
When I'm all alone the dreaming stops
And I just can't stand
What should I do I'm just a little baby
What if the lights go out
And maybe and then the wind just starts to moan
Outside the door he followed me home
So goodnight moon
I want the sun
If it's not here soon
I might be done
No it won't be too soon 'til I say goodnight moon
There's a shark in the pool
And a witch in the tree
A crazy old neighbor and he's been watching me
And there's footsteps loud and strong coming down the hall
Something's under the bed
Now it's out in the hedge
There's a big black crow sitting on my window ledge
And I hear something scratching through the wall
What should I do I'm just a little baby
What if the lights go out
And maybe and then the wind just starts to moan
Outside the door he followed me home
So goodnight moon
I want the sun
If it's not here soon
I might be done
No it won't be too soon 'til I say goodnight moon

Never mind what the title under the video says, the name of the song is Goodnight Moon, not Goodnight Moonlight. This popped up on YouTube  a couple of weeks ago and it sounded vaguely familiar. This evening I looked it up and found out why: it played during the credits at the end of Kill Bill. Wikipedia also had this lovely little tidbit:
It is the seventh track on the band's debut album I Oughtta Give You a Shot in the Head for Making Me Live in This Dump.
That pretty much sets the scene right there.
