Thank you my audiophile friend SGT (Join to see) for posting the official music video of Metallica performing 'Enter Sandman' in honor of the fact that on

Song background 'The original lyrics of this song were about Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. The line "Off to Never—, Neverland" originally was "Disrupt the perfect family", but the band's producer Bob Rock convinced James Hetfield to change it to make the song more accessible and meaningful.

"Enter Sandman" written by Kirk L Hammett, James Alan Hetfield
lyrics
"Say your prayers, little one
Don't forget, my son
To include everyone

I tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
Till the Sandman he comes

Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight

Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to Never—, Neverland

Something's wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of Snow White

Dreams of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragon's fire
And of things that will bite

Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight

Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to Never—, Neverland

Now I lay me down to sleep
Pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake
Pray the Lord my soul to take

Hush little baby, don't say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It's just the beasts under your bed
In your closet, in your head

Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand

Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to Never—, Neverland

We're off to Never—, Neverland
Take my hand
We're off to Never—, Neverland
Take my hand
We're off to Never—, Neverland
We're off to Never—, Neverland
We're off to Never—, Neverland

One classic Metallica song inspires me to post a few more
We're off to Never—, Neverland"
