Let the evening in now  Let the darkness come  Shadows in your room unfold the night  Time to go to sleep now  for every man and child  Tonight you're still protected by the blackness  One was nearly seven  Her sister almost five  You'll tell us all tomorrow, Mary Bell  About how smoothly things went  and how they didn't fight  You're going back there, Mary Bell  And tell us how you found out  what no child should know  Tell us about the killing, Mary Bell  The night is dark above you  The universe is quiet  Tonight you're still protected by the blackness
