Song #2: The Sandman (youtube video)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-QGGaNceN8

ALL:
The Sandman he weaves his spell, over hill and dell
Through the quiet streets, you beneath your sheets
Hov’ring o’er your bed
Dust and dreams he’ll spread
You try hard to fight
The Horror and the Sprite

Sandman, Sandman, Sandman, Sandman.

(whispered) Sandman

HORRORS:
Horrors, we are horrors
We darken dreams
Black they seem
Make you scream (Go on scream!)
We’re such horrors!

SPRITES:
Sprites are we, brim full of energy
We can soothe your fears
Dry your tears
Brighten your nights
We’re the Sprites!

HORRORS/SPRITES:
What are your hopes and fears?
What brings you smiles and tears?
We will battle on
Get it done
We’ll work your dream through
Just for you.

[DREAM TABLEAU]
ALL:
Dreams can teach you to behave
HORRORS:
The mean spoilt kid who rants and raves
SPRITES:
Kind sweet fairies grant your wish
HORRORS:
An ugly witch with poison kiss

SANYA:
Aaargh!      (Scream – Sanya sits up suddenly in bed startled by the nightmare images,                            still holding “The Sandman” book)

SPRITES:
Soothing music calms you through
ALL:
Dreams can mix the false and true
So which one speaks the most to you?

ALL:
The Sandman he weaves his spell, over hill and dell
Through the quiet streets, you beneath your sheets
Hov’ring o’er your bed
Dust and dreams he’ll spread
You try hard to fight
The Horror and the Sprite

Sandman, Sandman, Sandman, Sandman.
