Butterfly is a song by Swedish group, SMiLE.dk, released in their debut album in 1998. This song was first featured in Dancemania 10 and the first mix of Dance Dance Revolution. Butterfly takes it's theme from japanese culture, talking about a girl looking for her ideal japanese man. The song defined the sound of the group and how it is today.

Lyrics


Ay, iyaiyai, A-a-a iyaiyai Where's my samurai? I've been searching for a man All across Japan Just to find, to find my samurai Someone who is strong But still a little shy Yes I need, I need my samurai * Ay, Ay, Ay, I'm your little butterfly Green, black and blue, make the colours in the sky Ay, Ay, Ay, I'm your little butterfly Green, black and blue, make the colours in the sky I've been searching in the woods And high upon the hills Just to find, to find my samurai Someone who won't regret To keep me in his net Yes I need, I need my samurai * Repeat ** Ay, iyaiyai, Ay, iyaiyai A-a-a iyaiyai Where's my samurai Ay, Ay, Ay, I'm your little butterfly ** Repeat
