lyrics

CAST:
Lights out! Lights out!
You had your bit of fun now but it’s getting on ten o’clock
Lights out!

BOY:
Whoa, what about the show?
I was getting ready to kick it into gear

CAST:
Lights out! Lights out!
Your little show is done now get up and smile for the Doc
Lights out!

BOY:
Whatever do you mean
What about the groovy music in my ear – listen!

CAST:
No, none of this is real, Boy oh Boy
Except inside your little mind
So now how do you feel, as you find
It’s all in your head
Will you let us tuck you in bed?
Sorry Fred.

Lights out! Lights out!
Enough of this fornication now enough of this freaky funk
Lights out!

DR. Ü:
We go through this every night about this time, Freddie my boy!

CAST:
Lights out! Lights out!
Better take your medication better hurry into your bunk
Lights out!

DR. Ü:
An even more inspired act than usual this time.
Perhaps that’s a good sign, ha ha ha.

CAST:
No, none of this is real, Boy oh Boy
Except inside your little mind
So now how do you feel, as you find
It’s all in your head
Will you let us tuck you in bed?
Sorry Fred.
You’re just another face
Just another sorry case

At the Ünderland Home For The Totally Insane®
La la la la la, you’re totally insane, totally insane….

BOY & DR. Ü:
Lights out! Lights out!

KITTEN & BECKY:
You do the same thing every night and we like to play along

MERCURY:
Your real name is Frederick Tybus. You suffered a complete mental breakdown 18 months ago.

BOY & DR. Ü:
Lights out! Lights out!

KITTEN & BECKY:
You like to step into the light, you like to sing a little song

MERCURY:
If you don’t believe me look at your ID tag. Inside your shirt, silly!

BOY-O:
And now I find myself relapsing
To a life I dimly do recall
And as this cardboard world’s collapsing, I hit the wall

CAST:
It’s all in your head!

BOY-O:
Why don’t you tuck me in bed

CAST:
Sorry Fred.

BOY-O:
I’m just another punk
Just another ship that sunk

CAST:
At the Ünderland Home For The Totally Insane®

BOY-O:
Really? Totally insane? That’s disturbing….

CAST:
La la la la la, you’re totally insane, totally insane….

DISEMBODIED VOICES FROM FARAWAY:
And maybe later in your dream
You’ll be sighing
Flying
Light as air
Riding on pink puffy clouds with the wind in your hair.
There, there.

BOY-O:
Wo, I don’t wanna go
No no no, I don’t wanna stop the show.

GIRLS:
Wo wo, he don’t wanna go no,
But it’s time time time, time to stop the show.

BOY, DR Ü, MERCURY:
Time time keeps ticking on down the line time time,
Time time keeps slipping into a rhyme time time

ALL:
Lights out! Lights out! Lights out! Lights out! Lights out!

BOY-O:
No, I don’t wanna go, I don’t ever wanna stop the show

GIRLS:
No, la di da di day,
La di da di da di da di day.

ALL:
Lights out! Lights out! Lights out! Lights out! Lights out!
No, I don’t wanna go, I don’t ever wanna stop the show
No, la di da di day,
La di da di da di da di day.
Lights out! Lights out! Lights out! Lights out! Lights out!
No, I don’t wanna go, I don’t ever wanna stop the show
No, la di da di day,
La di da di da di da di day.
(repeat as music goes crazy)

Good night
Sleep tight.
