‘Lightbulb Girl’ is a short ode to the power of summer love and the hope of its attainment.

lyrics

Mr. Moth, are you on the way? Will you dance and twirl for me tonight? Zippity-zip your crazy zig-zag way. I’ll leave on my friendly bedroom light.
Hey!
You’re just like me!
You dance and twirl.
You like all bright and shiny things
I know you’d like the lightbulb girl.
Mr. Moth, you are my special friend. I know I can tell you anything.You see, that girl she is so shiny that I’m blinded by her beauty. Couldn’t fly away, not even with your wings
You’re just like me!
You dance and twirl.
You like all bright and shiny things
I know you’d like the lightbulb girl.
So I went to tell her honestly. But I didn’t want to turn her off (so to speak).‘Cause the lightbulb girl is pure and bright and everybody loves her and I know I’m just a lowly little moth
You’re just like me!
You dance and twirl
You like all bright and shiny things
I know you’d like the lightbulb girl
And perhaps this is a crazy song.And perhaps I am a crazy man.
And perhaps she will reject me on the basis of my psyche,
yet attracted to her flame I’ll always be—it’s what I am!
You’re just like me!
You dance and twirl
You like all bright and shiny things
I know you’d like the lightbulb girl.
