"Turn on Your Heartlight" is a song made famous by Neil Diamond. It was inspired by the Steven Spielberg movie E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. Eric Cartman sings this song to himself while cooking in the Season Fifteen episode, "Ass Burgers".
Background[]
After hearing from Kyle Broflovski that some people believe vaccinations cause Asperger syndrome, Cartman misinterprets this as "Ass Burgers". The next day, Cartman cooks hamburgers before school and stuffs them in his underpants, pretending he has the disorder.
Lyrics[]
Come back again
I want you to stay next time
'Cause sometimes the world ain't kind
When people get lost like you and me
I just made a friend
A friend is someone you need
But now that he had to go away
I still feel the words that he might say
Turn on your heartlight
Let it shine wherever you go
Let it make a happy glow
For all the world to see
Turn on your heartlight
In the middle of a young boy's dream
Don't wake me up too soon
Gonna take a ride across the moon
You and me
He's lookin' for home
'Cause everyone needs a place
And home's the most excellent place of all
And I'll be right here if you should call me
Turn on your heartlight
Let it shine wherever you go
Let it make a happy glow
For all the world to see
Turn on your heartlight
In the middle of a young boy's dream
Don't wake me up too soon
Gonna take a ride across the moon
You and me
And home's the most excellent place of all
And I'll be right here if you should call me
Turn on your heartlight
Let it shine wherever you go
Let it make a happy glow
For all the world to see
Turn on your heartlight
In the middle of a young boy's dream
Don't wake me up too soon
Gonna take a ride across the moon
You and me
Turn on your heartlight now
Turn on your heartlight now
