Candy took the pearls
Got ahead of the girls
Got on top and found the secret entrance
Are you satisfied?
Through neon doors
Cross killing floors
She got sucked into a champagne desert
Are you satisfied?
Daddy said: I'll break your bones
If you come home dressed in Peacock clothes
Mother said: quit the show
She didn't want the neighbours to know
Candy had to quit the show
Well, Candy didn't care
When she started her affair
With the studs and the mares of the night
Are you satisfied?
Teddy knows the rule
Of the underground school
He's got Candy wrapped round his finger
Are you satisfied?
Candy is going bad - she's got a room to let
Candy is going bad - got a pimp, named Ted
Candy is going bad - long greens where it's at
Candy's going bad - she's got stars in her head
Daddy said: I'll break your bones
If you don't get your tricks of the phone
Mother said: quit the show
I don't want the neighbours to know
