"(Life Is Like) Hard Candy"
2008 B.G.Matthews

Life is like (is like) hard candy, you got to unwrap it before you can get into it.
Life is like (is like) hard candy, it's got to get licked a little before it can get bit.

You're looking at the packaging. So beautiful and you can't wait.
But (you) wonder if you unwrap it now. You will have taken the bait.

Life is like (is like) hard candy, so many flavors you dont know which to choose.
Life is like (is like) hard candy, and you know once you have one you just lit a fuse.

You know that it can rot your teeth. But you don't care 'cuz it's so sweet.
It can choke you if you sleep with it. So don't you dare go to sleep.

You're ready now to put it in. Butterscotch or Peppermint.
Taking plastic off it now. Look at it shine. Look at it shine.
Mmm mighty fine. Mmm mighty fine.

Life is like (is like) hard candy, around the holidays you might get some more.
Life is like (is like) hard candy, careful dont let it accidentally drop on the floor.

Now you got it sucked 'bout halfway through. So far it hasn't turned to goo.
And you know you want to make it last. So don't you dare eat it fast.

Oops cracked off a little part. Hoping that it's not a start.
Oops cracked off a little more. (*guitar)
Feeling it fade. Feeling it fade. Melting away. Melting away.

Life is like (is like) hard candy, getting smaller and smaller as (you) go along.
Life is like (is like) hard candy, before you know it, hard candy's all gone.
Life is like (is like) hard candy, getting smaller and smaller as (you) go along.
Life is like (is like) hard candy, before you know it, hard candy's all gone.
Before you know it, hard candy's all gone.
