lyrics

We don't lock our doors around here
It's the luck of the lightning bug
Can I catch one in my hand?
The luck of the lightning bug

And they flutter, flutter
Out of my mind
Flutter, flutter
Out of my mind
Bad with names, but remember they're kind

It's the luck of the lightning bug

Can I catch one in my hand?
The luck of the lightning bug

If I was just a bug, and you held me tight
Well, you and the rest could see my light
And you'd put out my lights
If I was just a bug, and you held me tight
Well, you and the rest, just test your luck
The luck of the lightning bug

Will luck be a
Will luck be a lightning bug, yeah?
Will luck be a
Will luck be a lightning bug, yeah?
Will luck be a
A ladybug?
Will luck be a
Will luck be a lightning bug, yeah?
Will luck be a
Will luck be a lightning bug, yeah?
Will luck be a
Ladybug?

The luck of the lightning bug

And they flutter, flutter
Out of my mind
Flutter, flutter
Out of my mind
Bad with names, but remember they're kind
And i shudder, shudder
At a new rhyme
Mother, mother, it's a nice light
Is it so wrong to think its mine?
