I know that you want the candy
Gimme candy I've never had
Tastes so sweet makes good love bad
Sweet sweet lips
The taste of you tonight
Turn me on
Strangers in delight
Sugar done melt the day
The dark comes bittersweet
Black lollipops
Come on gimme a dirty treat
I know that you want the candy
Gimme candy I've never had
Tastes so sweet makes good love bad
Fallen out with my love
A grievous time to pass
Sugar done break my heart
A heart not meant to last
In spite of saddened days
I hooked myself on you
But all my troubled ways
Still walked with me boo hoo
I know that you want the candy
Gimme candy I've never had
Tastes so sweet makes good love bad
Gimme some C to kill
Gimme some C to tease
Gimme some C so I can wrap
Myself in you
Oh please
But everything came around
Candy done taste sweet
Made me think what I found
AN expired love treat
I gave myself to you
I wanted nothing back
I plowed my way through hell
For a sweet sweet love attack
I know that you want the candy
Gimme candy I've never had
Tastes so sweet makes good love bad
