آهنگ Enter Sandman
از آلبوم The Black Album
این آهنگ رو راستیتش تا این حد بالا گذاشتمش چون اوایل که متالیکا گوش میکردم جزو اولین آهنگ هاشون بود که خیلی زیاد گوش میکردم وگرنه الان سال به سال یه بارم پلی نمیکنمش.
آهنگ درباره یه موجود خیالی به اسم مرد شنی یا Sandman یا لولو خوخوره خودمون که بچه هارو میترسونه هست. تو نسخه اولیه قرار بود این آهنگ درباره سندروم مرگ ناگهانی بچه های خیلی کوچیک باشه که عوضش کردن تا خیلی دارک نباشه :(
بهترین ورژن لایو از نظر من: با اختلاف Moscow 1991
Say your prayers, little one
Don't forget, my son
To include everyone
Tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
'Til the sandman, he comes
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Somethings wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of Snow White
Dreams of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragon's fire
And of things that will bite, yeah
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Now I lay me down to sleep
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake
If I die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
I pray the Lord my soul to take
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It's just the beasts under your bed
In your closet, in your head
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land, yeah
Uh
Yeah, yeah
Yo, oh
We're off to never-never land
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
