Huge Round Of Applause…

…to Tim Butt, who wins the prize for identifying what the heck this song is all about. It is of course a homage to the night-light that used to comfort the author during the dark night hours in his childhood days. Tim is entirely wrong about the merit of the aforementioned ditty - it is [...]

My issue is with when people say [...]
