Light Up My Room
Barenaked Ladies
Album: Stunt
 
A Hydro-field cuts through my neighborhood
Somehow that always just made me feel good
I can put a spare bulb in my hand 
And light up my yard
 
Late at night when the wires in the walls
Sing in tune with the din of the falls
I'm conducting it all while I sleep
To light the whole town
 
If you question what I would do
To get over and be with you
Lift you up over everything
To light up my room, my room
 
There's a shopping cart in the ravine
The foam on the creek is like pop
and ice cream
A field full of tires that is always on fire
To light up my home
 
There are luxuries we can't afford
But in our house we never get bored
We can dance to the radio station
That plays in our teeth
 
If you question what I would do
To get over and be with you
Lift you up over everything
To light up my room, my room
