Firefly

I call her firefly
Cause, oh, my
She radiates moonglow
Wants none of that noon glow
She starts to glitter
When the sun goes down
Bout 8 pm, it's mayhem
She switches the brights up
Lights up and gives me a call
Take me to the fireflies ball
But when I get her there
Set her there
Do I get to pet her there
And grab me some glow
No, she's a gad about, mad about
Luring every lad about
While leaving me moaning low
Oh, firefly, why can't I
Latch onto you no how
Oh, how I love you but gee
While you set the night on
Firefly, shine a little light on me
But when I get her there
Set her there
Do I get to pet her there
And grab me some glow
No, she's a gad about, mad about
Luring every lad about
While leaving me moaning low
Oh, firefly, why can't I
Latch on for you no how
Oh, how I love you but gee
While you set the night on
Firefly, shine a little light on
Shine a little light on
Shine a little light on me
(In the mornin')
