American Candy

What will you do on the weekends
When your best friends
Become your dead friends?
From all the sugar
And all the sweetness
This little sweet tooth
It is your weakness
They've got american candy
You're sweet and sated, so sedated
For the american kids
You're hooked and baited, annihilated
Even if you wanted to
You couldn't stop it's just so sweet
But this american candy
It'll rot your teeth
Try to think back to back to a time when
You loved what you loved because you loved it
Before the sugar
And all the sweetness
Filled up your lungs now
It's all you breath in
They've got american candy
You're sweet and sated, so sedated
For the american kids
You're hooked and baited, annihilated
Even if you wanted to
You couldn't stop it's just so sweet
But this american candy
It'll rot your teeth
Sometimes I feel as though I'm going mad when
I get a touch of saccharine on my lips
I hate the taste on my tongue too damn sweet
I don't fancy american candy, american candy
They've got american candy
You're sweet and sated, so sedated
For the american kids
You're hooked and baited, annihilated
Even if you wanted to
You couldn't stop it's just so sweet
But this american candy
It'll rot your teeth until your gums they bleed
I hate the taste on my tongue too damn sweet
I don't fancy american candy, american candy
You're sweet and sated baby
I hate the taste on my tongue too damn sweet
I don't fancy american candy
