There's a burglar alarm
Just gone off at some store
To blend with the sirens
Of the city patrol.
In the howling of cats
That are having a ball
While someone is listening
To Mozart next door.
So wish me good night
As I switch off the light
In emerge in a sweet city lullaby.
In the house to the right
There's a party tonight;
They've opened the windows
To let the noise out.
But somehow it softens
The sounds of a row
That rocks the floor boards
Of the flat up above.
So wish me good night
As I switch off the light
In emerge in a sweet city lullaby.
