Mister Moon-Man Turn Off The Light 1910

When the moon is shining yellow,
And a girlie with her fellow,
Both are getting nice and mellow,
In the bright moon light.
Then the lightman will discover,
Sweethearts keeping under cover,
Soon he hears that girl and lover
Say to him: "Put out that light."

Turn off your light, Mister MoonMan,
Go and hide your face behind a cloud;
Can't you see that we want to spoon, man,
Two is company and three's a crowd.
I'll take my lady to a shady place
where I can hug my baby,
and we'll say to you:
"Goodnight, Goodnight!"!
We want to tease and squeeze,
if you please,
Mister MoonMan turn off the light.

Turn off your light, Mister MoonMan,
Go and hide your face behind a cloud;
Can't you see that we want to spoon, man,
Two is company and three's a crowd.
I'll take my lady to a shady place
where I can hug my baby,
and we'll say to you:
"Goodnight, Goodnight!"!
We want to tease and squeeze,
if you please,
Mister MoonMan turn off the light.

All you lads and little misses,
Like to have your hugs and kisses,
But remember half the bliss is,
When it's dark as it can be.
If once more I start my pleading,
Tell him darkness we are needing,
In case my pleading he is heeding,
You must do the same as we.

Turn off your light, Mister MoonMan,
Go and hide your face behind a cloud;
Can't you see that we want to spoon, man,
Two is company and three's a crowd.
I'll take my lady to a shady place
where I can hug my baby,
and we'll say to you:
"Goodnight, Goodnight!"!
We want to tease and squeeze,
if you please,
Mister MoonMan turn off the light.

Turn off your light, Mister MoonMan,
Go and hide your face behind a cloud;
Can't you see that we want to spoon, man,
Two is company and three's a crowd.
I'll take my lady to a shady place
where I can hug my baby,
and we'll say to you:
"Goodnight, Goodnight!"!
We want to tease and squeeze,
if you please,
Mister MoonMan turn off the light.
