The original lyrics are probably by Mozart himself; [1] they include the words for "good night" in five different languages (Latin, Italian, French, English, and German). [2] [3] The phrase "gute Nacht, gute Nacht, / scheiß ins Bett daß' kracht", found in the fourth-to-last and third-to-last lines, closely resembles a similar expression found in a postscript to one of Wolfgang's letters by ...
