Your Time Is Up (Time For Bed)

A playful bedtime handoff that wraps rubbery pop motion, parental tenderness, and just enough chaos into a chorus that feels like routine made affectionate.

Production Notes

The fun here is in letting the song bounce while the lyric gradually winds the room down. It moves like a kid who is obviously overtired but still trying to negotiate one more lap.

That tension between energy and surrender is what makes the hook feel affectionate instead of strict.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You got crayons on your fingers
You got stories in your eyes
You’re still dancing in the kitchen
In your half-on
Inside-out disguise
There’s a tower in the hallway
There’s a dragon on the stairs
You’re a superhero yawning
In your mismatched socks and wild hair

[Chorus]
Your time is up
It’s time for bed
Put the day back in its box inside your head
Your time is up
Come rest that crown
All the races
All the chases
You can lay them down
(hey!)
Your time is up
It’s time for bed
We’ll press pause on every word you haven’t said
Your time is up
Now close your eyes
We’ll save the world again when the sun will rise

[Verse 2]
You’re still bargaining for minutes
Like they’re candy in a jar
“You won’t miss me
You won’t miss me
If I just stay where you are”
But your rockets need refueling
And your monsters need a nap
Even pirates park their ship and
Fold their maps upon their lap

[Chorus]
Your time is up
It’s time for bed
Put the day back in its box inside your head
Your time is up
Come rest that crown
All the races
All the chases
You can lay them down
(oh-oh)
Your time is up
It’s time for bed
All the “one more” little wishes have been said
Your time is up
Now close your eyes
We’ll save the world again when the sun will rise

[Bridge]
Every “why” and every “how”
Can wait until the morning now
Every “just five minutes more”
Sleeping heroes still can roar (in their dreams) (yeah)
Every laugh you didn’t get
Is waiting where the pillows set
Every game you didn’t win
Starts again when light comes in

[Chorus]
Your time is up
It’s time for bed
Put the day back in its box inside your head
Your time is up
Come rest that crown
All the races
All the chases
You can lay them down
Your time is up
It’s time for bed
I’ll be right here catching dreams by the thread
Your time is up
Now close your eyes
We’ll save the world again when the sun will rise
