Candy Apple Red Polish

Crazy, Drunken Alcoholic

Candy apple red polish

Crazy, drunken alcoholic

Couldn't quit if she knew how

Can't turn back the timer now

Candy apple red polish

Cuticles have been abolished

Cast away her gift from cupid

Cries at night while feeling stupid

Candy apple red polish

Courage on fire, then demolished

Caved into pressures, now she's tired

Chardonnay now keeps her quiet

Candy apple red polish

Chipped her manicure and wallowed

Curling up in drunken sorrow

Cuvée in the fridge for tomorrow

Cringing with only her self to blame

Calling-out her ex-lovers's name
