I'll catch you on the playground
Don't come around telling me those bedtime stories
But baby, you better think twice
I see you there throwin' pebbles at my window
Before you come around and tell me
Before you come around and tell those bedtime stories
Wanna hear your voice before I close my eyes
But daddy's home, just my luck
Before you come around and tell me
See you at school
It's late for me yet, something draws me closer
It's 12 o'clock, what you doin' up?
So, baby let's take it slowly, ya, ya
Bedtime stories, better think twice
Wanna hear your voice before I close my eyes
I have some rules by which I must abide
Bedtime stories, better think twice
I know we're much to young for love
Bedtime stories, better think twice
So, listen up if you want to have a future
Better take daddy's advice
But don't look my way when the sun goes down
Before you come around and tell those bedtime stories
But baby, you better think twice
Don't you come around telling bedtime stories
As much as I like a little danger
Before you come around and tell those bedtime stories
Take it from me, you'd better run and hide
Better take daddy's advice
Before you come around and tell me
