Hi everyone! I haven't done an open mic in a while... This song is from my new daily dtube vlog, HALF HOUR SONGWRITE CHALLENGE. Each day I try to write a song in 30 minutes, using a one word prompt provided by a random word generator (https://wordcounter.net/random-word-generator), a viewer suggestion, or by @mariannewest's daily freewrite. On Saturdays viewers can vote on which they'd like to see made into a full fledged song (it's only half an hour, the furthest I usually get each day is a verse or two and (though not always) a chorus). On Sundays I finish the most voted song and post it. This week there were two, so I decided to make an exception and upload one to YouTube as well as Dtube, so as to share it with the open mic community :)

CANDY

---

She looks delicious
But is she nutritious
Or just another sugar rush?

She looks so sweet good enough to eat
But too much could be dangerous

'Cause if you get too high then you crash too fast
And you end up shaking
Craving one fix after another it's
Hard to get a good look
Once you're hooked
So think before you kiss her
Have you assessed the risk here?
No

Oh just let her put you in a coma
You know you know you wanna
Go!

Candy
Candy
She melts in your mouth
Do not exceed the recommended daily amount
She makes your heart beat way too fast
Which is exactly the right speed
Oh Candy you're all
I need

The sweet innocence of youth
You bite off more than you can chew
But once you start you don't want to stop

So brace yourself boy
She's not a toy
Even when you've got her spinning like a top

'Cause when you fly too high you never want to come down
Then it's fix to fix
One thing leads to another
Pretty soon you're hitching rides
On dragonflies
Out across the universe
Did you stop to think first?
No

'Cause she's so sweet you want to scream
You're a kid
It's Halloween
And she's

Candy
Candy
She melts in your mouth
Do not exceed the recommended daily amount
She makes your heart beat f-f-f-fast
And that's exactly the right speed
Oh Candy you're all
I need

And it's fix to fix
Treats or tricks
You can sleep when you're dead
Let's go to bed

'Cause it's never enough
No such thing as too much
Of a good thing and
You know what's good?

Oh you know what's good?

It's
Candy
Candy
She melts in your mouth
Do not exceed the recommended daily amount
She makes your heart beat way too fast
And that's exactly the right speed
Oh Candy you're all
I need

This is your brain on

Candy
Candy
She melts in your mouth
Do not exceed the recommended daily amount
She makes your heart beat f-f-f-fast
And that's exactly the right speed
Oh Candy you're all
I need
