My Night Light

"My Night Light" is Track 11 of the album Arthur and Friends: The First Almost Real Not Live CD (or Tape). The song is about Binky Barnes celebrating his night light and how it helps him to sleep & have good dreams and also learning that sleeping with it is nothing to be ashamed of because his friends have night lights too.

Lyrics

Binky

My night light

Stuck in my wall socket

Protects me from dangers

That slither up the stairs

They do.

Without it, everything in my room's creepy

Like that big goon face that's really

My pants thrown over a chair

I love my night light

More than I love ice cream

I've slept with ice cream

And it turns to mush by dawn

Mush can't scare piranhas

Snakes and leaping lizards

But my night light's golden glow

Protects my every yawn (yawns)

With my night light

I dream of conquering a cyclops, heh heh

A big one with three or four eyes

Then I eat the moon

Then there's that cool dream

Where I'm taller than four buildings, hoo hoo!

I hope that I dream

That one again soon

No one needs to know

That I sleep with a night light

Friends

That's okay, Binky

We've had nightmares like you

Binky

You have?

Friends

But our night lights

Glowing in our wall sockets

Scare away monsters that don't even exist

Now we all have dreams

Binky

We all have dreams!

Friends

That are fun to recall

Binky

That are fun to recall!

Friends

Thanks to our night lights

Binky

Thanks to our night lights!

Friends

Thanks to our night lights

Binky

Thanks to our night lights!

Friends

Thanks to our night lights

Glowing on the wall

Binky

Our night lights!
