If you're a bit twisted when it comes to your political view point and your sense of humor, read the following lyrics with the moth being politicans, the flame being lobbyists, and heat being greed. I'm positive this is not how Aimee Mann intended it, but damn if I don't love it this way.

"The moth don't care when he sees the flame
he might get burned, but he's in the game.
and once he's in he can't go back, and
beat his wings till he burns them black.

No the moth don't care when he sees the flame.
No the moth don't care when he sees the flame.

The moth don't care if the flame is real
'coz flame and moth got a sweetheart deal,
and nothing fuels a good flrtation
like need and anger and desperation.

Now the moth don't care if the flame is real.
Now the moth don't care if the flame is real.

So come on, let's go.  Ready or not.
'Coz there's a flame I know, hotter than hot
and with a fuse that's so thoroughly shot, away.

The moth don't care if the flame burns low
coz moth believes in an afterglow
and flames are never doused completely,
all you really need is the love of heat.

Now the moth don't care if the flame burns low.
Now the moth don't care if the flame burns low.

So come on, let's go.  Ready or not.
'Coz there's a flame I know, hotter than hot
and with a fuse that's so thoroughly shot, away"
