Wait just a minute
Cause right when we start to kick it
No one knows just where to go cause the amp's gone out
A firefly jumps in my eye and tells me what to do
He says: Play your silly instruments and sing your heart out
Do the very best you can and make everybody shout
Just the other day beautiful girl come walkin' my way
I was mesmerized by her deep blue eyes and didn't know what to say
When she asked to sit, she sounded so cool
I knew right then what I had to do, I knew what I had to say
So you know we had a wonderful day, chatting away, in the cafe
Wait just a minute
Cause right when we start to kick it
No one knows just where to go cause the lights went out
A firefly jumps in my eye and tells me what to do
He says: Play your silly instruments and sing your heart out
Do the very best you can and make everybody shout
Now this firefly he was my friend, to the very end
But one fateful day, a truck came his way
His puny legs started to break and bend he was very close to his end
We didn't know where to go, We didn't want to go on with the show
He told the guys not to cry, And I just had to say
Wait just a minute
Cause right when we start to kick it
No one knows just where to go cause the fly's gone out
A firefly jumps in my eye and tells me what to do
He says: Play your silly instruments and sing your heart out
Do the very best you can and make everybody shout
We played our very last gig as best as we could
We dedicated it to him cause we knew we should
He was the best darn firefly I ever met
He lead our band to be the best we could
Without him we stopped cause we knew we should
Without him it wouldn't be the same
So we decided to change our name
But we always sing this song for him
So Wait just a minute
Cause right when we start to kick it
No one knows just where to go cause the fly's gone out
A firefly jumps in my eye and tells me what to do
He says: Play your silly instruments and sing your heart out
Do the very best you can and make everybody shout
