lyrics

The light bulb committee chairman back in ’72
Found the light bulb hanging from the Fire Station roof
120 years it burns, on permanent display
Keeps on shining yet another webcam is replaced

CHORUS
The Lightbulb moment. You'll never be happy!
You’ll only desire what you can discard
The light bulb moment – but before I cracked it
I would never have kept you in the dark

In 1924 the cartel went worldwide
Standardise the light bulb, the market to divide
Bulbs that break more often, everyone complies
Create a fragile filament or receive a hefty fine

CHORUS

You can own something new, a little better than the rest
Own something a little sooner than strictly necessary
U could buy a fine suit o’ clothes you could be married n buried in
But there is no desire without a low self opinion

CHORUS
