"Now I lay me down to sleep,

I ask Logos to keep my prepubs cheap.

And I hope I don't die before they ship,

Please keep busy!  Crack the whip!"

    Then there is the version we used to say as kids:

     

    Now I lay me down to sleep.

    I park the car across the street;

    If I should die before I wake,

    Please, Lord, slam on the brake!  [:D]


    Little rascals, weren't we?

    Now I lay me down to sleep,

    I pray the Lord my soul to keep.

    If I should die before I wake,

    Someone's made a big mistake.
