Transcript:
In the great green room
There was a telephone
And a red balloon
And a picture of . . .
The cow jumping over the moon
And there were three little bears sitting on chairs
And two little kittens
And a pair of mittens
And a little egg bug
Asleep on a rug
And a comb and a brush and a bowl full of mush
And an anxious young intern who was whispering "hush"
Goodnight room
Goodnight moon
Goodnight cow jumping over the moon
Goodnight light and the red balloon
Goodnight bears
Goodnight chairs
Goodnight kittens
And goodnight mittens
Goodnight clocks
And goodnight socks
Goodnight egg bug
And goodnight rug
Goodnight comb
And goodnight brush
Goodnight nobody
Goodnight mush
And goodnight to the intern, whispering “hush”
Goodnight stars
Goodnight air
Goodnight noises everywhere
Goodnight, cohost.
Sleep well.
