Light Lamp Bulb

i can't twist in a new light bulb into my lamp as the socket seems to be very tight?
i have an expensive lamp that has a socket for a standard light bulb. the first time i changed the bulb i noticed that this was a very tight fit. the bulb has blown again and i managed to remove the old bulb. i am having trouble twisting in a new bulb. does anyone manufacture slightly narrower bulbs? or does anyone have any ideas on how to screw in a new standard bulb?
I am not insulting your intelligence, but I have to ask : When you removed the defective lamp (bulb) did the brass or silver colored base come out with the burned out lamp? That is, did the burned out lamp come out in one piece or was the screw in metal base left in the lamp fixture? Or even just part of it? O.K. that out of the way, check the socket that you are trying to screw the lamp into and see that it is not deformed or warped and that nothing remains in it that does not belong there. Have you tried installing more than one lamp thereby eliminating the possibility that the lamp you are trying to install has a warped or malformed base? If the female socket is deformed or of poor manufacture, installing a new one is a DIY project if you are handy. No such thing as a narrow lamp. They are standardized.
