Little Green Dot

Based on a popular internet notification, "Little Green Dot" is a feel-good song which speaks about the joy of seeing the online status of someone you like—that tiny green dot—while silently staring and hoping for a hint of reciprocity.

Dear little green dot
Why do I always smile
Whenever you light up
In this little box for chat

Dear little green dot
Why do I always smile
Whenever you stay there
‘Cause I know you’re okay, you’re safe

‘Cause you know I like the picture beside you
I hope someone is smiling at me too
From your side, from your side

Woohoohoo
Lalalalalala lalalala
Woohoohoo
Lalalalalala lalalala

Dear little green dot
Don’t you ever dare go
‘Cause you know I get sad
Whenever you do, oh no

‘Cause you know I like the name there beside you
The perfect mix of letters, spaces too
And it rings in my head
And it rings in my head

Woohoohoo
Lalalalalala lalalala
Woohoohoo
Lalalalalala lalalala

Dear little green dot
Why did you go
When will you pop up
Again on my screen, say hello

Dear little green dot
If you forever remain so
Does mine make you smile
When you see it too, I hope you do

Oh little green dot,
Little green dot
Lalalalalala lalalala

Oh little green dot,
Little green dot
Lalalalalala lalalala
