Think there's a monster in your closet

想着你的衣柜里有一只怪物

Even if you lock it

即使你锁着它

Think you can't stop it

你无法阻止它

No matter how hard you try

不管你有多努力

Well listen here sleepy head

瞌睡虫 听好了

Close your eyes and go to bed

闭上眼睛去睡觉

With good thoughts in your head

想着美好的事

Tell you why it's gonna be alright

一切都会好的

They're only shadows

他们只是影子

They're only shadows

他们只是影子

They're only shadows

他们只是影子

In the night

在晚上

You walk down the street

你走过街道

A creepy feeling starts to creep

你有一种毛骨悚然的感觉慢慢出现

And suddenly you feel your feet

突然你觉得你的脚

Moving faster til they fly

开始快走直到它们飞起来

You look all around

你看看周围

You look up and you look down

上看下看

But still there's nothing you have found

但你什么都没找到

And I will tell you why

我来告诉你为什么

There are lots of things that may go bump in the night

很多东西夜晚都会突然出现

But if you use your brain you will be alright

但如果你动动脑子 都会好的

That scary noise is just the faucet dripping

那可怕的声音只是没拧紧的滴水声

And the thump thump thump is the dog's tail wagging

而敲打声只是小狗摇尾巴的声音

The thing you saw out of the corner of your eye

你眼角看到的东西

Was just a shadow in the night

只是夜晚的影子

You can't have shadows without the light

如果没有光就没有影子

No hello without goodbye

没有你好就没有再见

No laughter 'til you cried

没有哭就没有笑

That's just part of life

这些都只是生活的一部分

The great compromise

最大的妥协

You are truly wise

你真的很明智

If you see with your own eyes

如果你亲眼看到

There are only shadows there are only shadows

只是影子而已

There are only a shadow in the night

都是夜晚的影子
