there was a telephone

and a red balloon

and a picture of

the cow jumping over the moon.

There were three little bears

sitting on chairs

and two little kittens

and a pair of mittens

and a little toyhouse

and a young mouse

and a comb and a brush

and a bowl full of mush

and a quiet old lady

who was whispering “hush.”

Good night 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 little house

and goodnight mouse.

Goodnight comb

and goodnight brush

Goodnight nobody

Goodnight mush

and goodnight to the old lady

whispering “hush.”

Goodnight stars

Goodnight air

Goodnight noises everywhere.
