I Fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

Kit Kat Give Me A Break

Twix Left or Right You’re Great

Whatchamacallit such a silly name

PeanutButterChocolateCaramel tastes great

It’s all the same

I fell asleep in the Candy Aisle

Rows and rows of hard candy

Racks and Racks of nougat FAN-tasy!

Kisses, Goobers Milk duds

Starbursts, Trollis, Now and Laters

When I wake up, make no mistake

Mouth-watering salivate

You’re Mine and You know it

I’ll just have to blow It

Go again with the flow it

Start again tomorrow

No worries or sorrows!

I Fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

Pop Rocks, Baby Ruth, and Chick-O-Sticks

Oh, how I love the Classic Treats

Wish I had some Lemon Heads!

Boston Baked Beans there it is

Remember Violets Candy?

We’re best friends

Fine and Dandy

Twirling round and round

To My Left and Right

Smell of chocolate

wrapped up tight

In their thin plastics

Familiar wrappings

All those Reese’s

I tear them to Pieces

Peanut Butter and Chocolate

It’s my weakness

I Fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

Like Kryptonite and Superman

Then I come crashing down

Blood Sugar Spike

Take a Hike

Only I become stronger

Peanuts and chocolate

Go together like

Popeye and Olive Oyl

Stuffing my pockets

With bite-sized nuggets

Just a few more moments

I fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

I don’t want to wake up

I fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

I must walk away

put one foot in front of the other

Don’t Focus on

Shelves Stacked with

Little pieces of dynamite

Delightful Devils

Pounds of Pleasure

I Fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

I Fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

I Fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

I Fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

I Fell Asleep in the Candy Aisle

Kit Kat Give Me A Break

Twix Left or Right You’re Great

Whatchamacallit such a silly name

PeanutButterChocolateCaramel tastes great

It’s all the same

I fell asleep in the Candy Aisle

Chocolate is my one hit

My candy crush fix

feening for this one meaning

I just came in here for one thing

The biggest aisle I’ve even seen

Inside A WALGREENS

Came in for one thing

walked into the biggest brightest aisle in the whole damn place

And dreamt a heavenly dream

Now I’m going home to

Have Rice Cakes and broccoli
