lyrics

Beware what lives beneath the bed with claws that swipe and snare
But with kitchen knives we protect the lives of the children in our care
Long ago they came from deep below took young ones from their beds
Until the first bear took a stand and then took off a head!

Nighty Knight, sleep tight
We won’t let the dragons bite
We don’t run and we don’t fear
We won’t let the monsters near

Some bears pass from hand to hand generations we’ll defend
We fight until we’re naught but patches and old fluff and spare thread
You see we’re made in China or Thailand or Taiwan
But we are ancient sorcery, the oldest magic made of love!

Nighty Knight, sleep tight
We won’t let the dragons bite
We don’t run and we don’t fear
We won’t let the monsters near

Mister Cuddles swung his knife with the greatest skill
Koshmar, King of Monsters thought he’d won when Cuddles fell
But Cinnamon stood up and said not tonight, you scum
We don’t die, we multiply we’ll take on all that come!

Nighty Knight, sleep tight
We won’t let the dragons bite
We don’t run and we don’t fear
We won’t let the monsters near

We go through buff bear boot camp before we hit the shelves
Unless you go to build-a-bear then those guys all train themselves!
We take down imps and goblins and bleed them into dust
We’re rough and tough with sweet-smelling fluff to keep our one promise!

Nighty Knight, sleep tight
We won’t let the dragons bite
We don’t run and we don’t fear
We won’t let the monsters near
