HOW DO YOU SAY
TO YOUR
CHILD IN THE NIGHT
NOTHING'S ALL BLACK
BUT THEN NOTHING'S
ALL WHITE
HOW DO YOU SAY IT WILL
ALL BE ALRIGHT
WHEN YOU KNOW THAT
IT MIGHT NOT BE TRUE
WHAT DO YOU DO
CAREFUL THE THINGS
YOU SAY
CHILDREN WILL
LISTEN
CAREFUL THE
THINGS YOU DO
CHILDREN WILL
SEE AND LEARN
CHILDREN MAY
NOT OBEY
BUT CHILDREN
WILL LISTEN
CHILDREN WILL
LOOK TO YOU
FOR WHICH WAY TO TURN
TO LEARN WHAT TO BE
CAREFUL BEFORE YOU
SAY LISTEN TO ME
CHILDREN WILL LISTEN
CAREFUL THE WISH
YOU MAKE
WISHES ARE CHILDREN
CAREFUL THE PATH
THEY TAKE
WISHES COME TRUE
NOT FREE
CAREFUL THE SPELL
YOU CAST
NOT JUST ON CHILDREN
SOMETIMES THE
SPELL MAY LAST
PAST WHAT YOU CAN SEE
AND TURN AGAINST EAR
CAREFUL THE
TALE YOU TELL
THAT IS THE SPELL
CHILDREN WILL LISTEN
HOW CAN YOU SAY
TO A CHILD WHO'S IN
FLIGHT DON'T
SLIP AWAY
AND I WON'T HOLD
SO TIGHT
WHAT CAN YOU
SAY THAT
NO MATTER HOW SLIGHT
WON'T BE
MISUNDERSTOOD
WHAT DO YOU LEAVE
TO YOUR CHILD
WHEN YOU'RE DEAD
ONLY WHATEVER YOU
PUT IN ITS HEAD
THINGS THAT YOUR
MOTHER
AND FATHER HAD SAID
WHICH WERE LEFT TO
THEM TOO
CAREFUL WHAT YOU SAY
CHILDREN WILL LISTEN
CAREFUL YOU DO IT TOO
CHILDREN WILL SEE
AND LEARN
OH GUIDE THEM BUT
STEP AWAY
CHILDREN WILL GLISTEN
TAMPER WITH WHAT
IS TRUE
AND CHILDREN
WILL TURN
IF JUST TO BE FREE
CAREFUL BEFORE YOU
SAY LISTEN TO ME
CHILDREN WILL LISTEN
CHILDREN WILL LISTEN
CHILDREN CHILDREN
WILL LISTEN MM MM
