Lyrics
Sugar
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They like their Dominos, their Sweet’ N Low, their cookie cutter queens
Simple syrup overdose and their cotton candy dreams
Little pink package you put me in
Serving it up like saccharin
Always had a bitter taste to me
And all the boys say
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme some of that sugar
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme something sweet
They want my sugar and spice and everything nice
And they’re begging for a taste of my cherry pie
But I’m never, never, never, never ever gone give’em a piece
Mama always told me that it takes a little bit of honey
If you wanna attract yourself a bee
But I kinda like it with a little sting
I’m gonna make’em buzz when they hear me sing
And they’ll swarm around me like I was a queen
And all the boys say
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme some of that sugar
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme something sweet
They want my sugar and spice and everything nice
And they’re begging for a taste of my cherry pie
But I’m never, never, never, never ever gone give’em a piece
Don’t you go a changing
Cause they only like you one way
Oh but this girl you see
She’s just pieces of me
And I’m more than just a topping
Not your marshmallow frosting
On your Betty Crocker chocolate cake
And all the boys say
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme some of that sugar
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme something sweet
They want my sugar and spice and everything nice
And they’re begging for a taste of my cherry pie
But I’m never, never, never, never ever gone give’em a piece
