The Lamplighter's Serenade
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A moment after dark
Around the park
An old-fashioned gent comes parading
Dressed in funny clothes
But singing as he goes
The lamplighter's serenade
The old boy loves a talk
With couples on the walk
But when it's half after love time
He reaches for his sticks
And from his bag of tricks
He lights every star in the sky
And if a lady or a beau should answer "no"
He sprinkles their hearts with his magic
Then he steals away to sing another day
The lamplighter's serenade...
And if a lady or a beau
Should find the answer "no"
He sprinkles every heart with magic
Then he steals away to sing another day
The lamplighter's serenade...!
