I got a bug inside it tickles like a butterfly.
I've got a worm that's mine and crawls around my whole inside.
And when I don't feel right it feels just like a parasite.
A bug, get it!
A bug, kill it!
And you will never know how it feels to light up the sky.
And you will never know how it feels to be a firefly.
My body is a jar for a special insect caught inside it.
Sometimes it lights me up but I would never let you know it.
Sometimes it crawls around and makes me laugh when I am down.
I don't wanna let it out yet I am greedy little bug.
A bug, kill it!
A bug, get it!
And you will never know how it feels to light up the sky.
And you will never know how it feels to be a firefly.
Sometimes I look for a safe place to keep my little bug.
Sometimes it flutters around trapped and I feel so sad.
But I know what would happen if I ever let go of it.
I think that this cruel world would surely kill it.
A bug, kill it!
A bug, get it!
And you will never know how it feels to light up the sky.
And you will never know how it feels to be a firefly.
And you will never know how it feels to light up the night.
And you will never know how it feels to be a firefly.
I've got a bug inside and it is just a little housefly. I got a bug inside it tickles like a butterfly. I've got a worm that's mine and crawls around my whole inside. And when I don't feel right it feels just like a parasite. A bug, get it! A bug, kill it! And you will never know how it feels to light up the sky. And you will never know how it feels to be a firefly. My body is a jar for a special insect caught inside it. Sometimes it lights me up but I would never let you know it. Sometimes it crawls around and makes me laugh when I am down. I don't wanna let it out yet I am greedy little bug. A bug, kill it! A bug, get it! And you will never know how it feels to light up the sky. And you will never know how it feels to be a firefly. Sometimes I look for a safe place to keep my little bug. Sometimes it flutters around trapped and I feel so sad. But I know what would happen if I ever let go of it. I think that this cruel world would surely kill it. A bug, kill it! A bug, get it! And you will never know how it feels to light up the sky. And you will never know how it feels to be a firefly. And you will never know how it feels to light up the night. And you will never know how it feels to be a firefly. Explain Request ×
