LYRICS

Mister Light Switch banishes the night
Mister Light Switch goes up down left and right
Mister Light Switch
Mister Light Switch

Ba ba ba

Mister Light Switch sees in black and white
Mister Light Switch can be very bright
Mister Light Switch will or won’t never might
Mister Light Switch is proper and polite
Until he’s not
Sometimes he’s not

Ba ba ba

Mister Light Switch can only count to one
Mister Light Switch resists oblivion
Mister Light Switch
Mister Light Switch

Ba ba ba

Mister Light Switch can change from state to state
Mister Light Switch cannot disintegrate
Mister Light Switch loves to illuminate
Mister Light Switch must eradicate
Mrs. Darkness
Although he loves her

It's the essence of TMJ to follow up a smart song about the need to forge new memories with a killer that grooves on everything great and awful about the 1970s. Brash, confident, and deeply pleasurable -- and its vibe is punctured by the new old b-side's warning "living backwards in time/losing your mind." As always, TMJ has it all ways, beautifully. Alan S
