Cover art for Little Red Light lyrics by Fountains of Wayne

This is a really good song, but for a while I could not understand all the words. I felt really dumb when I finally figured them out. Basically, it's about him and his girlfriend breaking up and it's driving him nuts. He's all alone and he hates it. Work is unbarable and everything feels like shit. He goes to sleep every night with the hope that his baby will be beside him when he wakes up, but the reality of it is that she's not calling and she's not emailing. She's not coming home.
