III. Candy Lyrics by Dave Malloy

Octet

2019

[HENRY]
ALL THE GAMES I LIKE HAVE CANDY IN THEM
ALL THE GAMES I LIKE FROM LAP TO PAD
SWEDISH FISH AND RED HOTS
SOUR BEARS AND CHOC-CHOCS
ALL THE CANDY NEVER STOPS
DAYGLO GO-GO UNDERGROUND
NO ONE ELSE AROUND
NO ONE THERE TO HURT ME
[HENRY & TOBY]
ALL THE GAMES I LIKE HAVE CANDY IN THEM
ALL THE GAMES I LIKE FROM LAP TO PAD
SWEDISH FISH AND RED HOTS
SOUR BEARS AND CHOC-CHOCS
ALL THE CANDY NEVER STOPS
DAYGLO GO-GO UNDERGROUND
NO ONE ELSE AROUND
NO ONE THERE TO HURT ME
[HENRY]
I PLAY MY CANDY
ANYWHERE AND ANYHOW
[ALL]
NO ONE AROUND CAN STOP ME
[HENRY]
WHEN I’M WITH CANDY
I DON’T HAVE TO THINK ABOUT
[ALL]
ALL OF THE SOUND ABOUT ME
[HENRY]
I PLAY IN MY BED
FROM THE MINUTE
THAT MY HEAD
CYCLES ON
ON THE JOHN
TAKE MY MEDS
IN THE BATH
DRY MY HAND OFF
IF IT’S WET
IN THE KITCHEN
ON MY EMAIL
SOMEONE’S BITCHIN’
BUT I DON’T CARE
I JUST STARE
AT THE GLARE
ON THE STREET
LOOKIN’ DOWN
AT MY FEET
IN THE RAIN
ON THE TRAIN
IN THE CROWD
IN THE
[ALL]
LOUD LOUD LOUD LOUD
CANDY CANDY
NO ONE’S GONNA BUG ME
[HENRY]
AT WORK I DO IT SNEAKY
[HENRY & WOMEN]
CANDY TIME
ALL THE TIME
[HENRY]
I SMILE, PRETEND TO LISTEN
BUT MY MIND IS ON A MISSION
[ALL]
WATCH THE NUMBERS GO UP
WATCH THE NUMBERS GO UP
WATCH THE NUMBERS GO UP, UP, UP
[HENRY & ED]
FIVE IN A ROW AND A GOLDEN GRANDMA
SWAP MY GUN FOR A STOLEN CHAINSAW
STEALTH MY BUILD, KILL THAT BEAST
FILL THE MAP, DRAGONS IN THE EAST
[ALL]
PUZZLE PUZZLE RANDOM RANDOM
SHINY SURPRISE
I DID IT!
ALL THE GAMES I LIKE HAVE CANDY IN THEM
ALL THE GAMES I LIKE FROM LAP TO PAD
SWEDISH FISH AND RED HOTS
SOUR BEARS AND CHOC-CHOCS
ALL THE CANDY NEVER STOPS
DAYGLO GO-GO UNDERGROUND
NO ONE ELSE AROUND
NO ONE THERE TO HURT ME
[HENRY, KARLY & PAULA]
I AM A PART OF THE SMALL AND RABID
ONLINE COMMUNITIES FOR EACH GAME I PLAY
[HENRY & WOMEN]
SOME OF THEM ARE WIZARDS AT MATHEMATICS
DID YOU KNOW HOW MUCH MATHEMATICS
YOU CAN GET INVOLVED IN IN THE GAMES I PLAY?
[HENRY & MARVIN]
SO MUCH CALCULATION
DONE IN ISOLATION
[HENRY & PAULA]
ON A DARK NICKNAMED SPREADSHEET
SAVED IN A HIDDEN FOLDER
[ALL]
WE SHARE TIPS AND TRICKS
ON HOW TO MAKE THE CANDY SWEETER
SOME USE JAVASCRIPTS
BUT I THINK THAT THEY ARE CHEATERS
MY CANDY IS PURE
AND I’M SO INSECURE
BUT THEY’LL NEVER EVER KNOW
HOW DARK IT GETS
[HENRY]
LIKE WHEN I GET A FEW DAYS OFF
SOMETIMES I JUST DON’T BATHE
I BARELY LEAVE MY BED
I MISBEHAVE
I DON’T BRUSH MY TEETH
[ALL]
EATIN’ NOTHING BUT CHIPS AND POP
FOR THREE WHOLE DAYS
ALL THE GAMES I LIKE HAVE CANDY IN THEM
ALL THE GAMES I LIKE FROM LAP TO PAD
SWEDISH FISH AND RED HOTS
SOUR BEARS AND CHOC-CHOCS
ALL THE CANDY NEVER STOPS
DAYGLO GO-GO UNDERGROUND
NO ONE ELSE AROUND
NO ONE THERE TO HURT ME
[HENRY]
I KNOW THAT CANDY ROTS MY TEETH
I THOUGHT IT WAS A PHASE
BUT NOW IT SEEMS THAT I’VE GONE CRAZY
AND I KNOW THAT IT’S TOO LATE
TOO TOO TOOTH DECAY
MY MIND DECAY
AND THEY NEVER GROW BACK
NO THEY NEVER GROW BACK
I AM MERELY COASTING THROUGH THE WORLD
IT’S JUST ANOTHER WINDOW
IDLING IN THE BACKGROUND
THERE’S A BRAND NEW LEVEL EVERY DAY
THIS I CAN ACCOMPLISH
THIS JACKS MY FIX RIGHT NOW
[C​HORUS]
AH…
[HENRY]
I SUSPECT DEEP DOWN
I DON’T CARE IF I DIE
HOW ELSE COULD I
BE WASTING SO MUCH TIME
ON THIS SWEET FLUORESCENT SMILING BRAINROT
STUPID AND DRYEYE POISON
[C​HORUS]
YEAH
