CandyLand
(To the tune "Thank You" by Ray Boltz)
Lyrics by Gretchen Hall
I dreamed I went to Candyland
And you were there with me
We walked upon the streets of gum
beside the jello sea
Heard the gingerbread singing
Someone called your name
Turned and saw this candy cane
We noticed the knife as he came
And he said, friend, you may not know me now
And then he said, but wait
You used to eat me for dessert
Every night at eight
And every week I would lose a stripe
Until that fateful day
You chomped on my head
And now I'm in Candyland to stay
I hate you for what you did to me
I used to be something sweet
And now the earth I can't even see
I hate you for what you did to me
Digestion provides misery
Then another friend stood before you
And said, remember the time
Your mother baked that scrumptious cake?
You only nine.
You didn't even brush your teeth
When you finished me
And so when you got a cavity
I laughed with glee.
I hate you for what you did to me
I used to be something sweet
And now the earth I can't even see
I hate you for what you did to me
Digestion provides misery
One by one they came
Far as the eye could see
Each life somehow lost
By your serious gluttony
Little things that you ate, sacrifices made
Unnoticed here on earth
In Candy land now proclaimed
(chorus again)
