Lyrics
As you flicker little light
Find a date for me tonight
Make her special, make her nice
Make her wealthy and polite
When the tabloids stop to see
Everyone will envy me
Can you find the perfect one?
Little light, flicker on
There she is, right on the screen
She's as lovely as can be
Send her email, then I call
Hang her picture on my wall
Buy her flowers, buy her rings
Love the way she likes to sing
Change the channel not again
Little light, you are my friend
Will you marry me Jeannette?
Even though we've never met
TV love is always true
I know you would love me too
Since the day I found your house
The police have come around
I still love you just as well
Little light leaks from my cell
Little light
