Here lies the powder and perfume

The pretty clothes are scattered 'round the room

And it's so like Candy


Here lies the lipstick and the face

The coloured tablets keep it all in place

And it's so like Candy

So like Candy


Chorus:

What did I do to make her go

Why must she be the one

That I have to love

So like Candy


Here lies a picture of a girl

Her arms are tight around that lucky guy

And it's so like Candy


And in her eyes a certain look

I thought I'd seen the last of long ago

And it's so like Candy

So like Candy


(Repeat Chorus)


I remember the day that the picture was taken

We were so happy then

But that's so like Candy

She seemed so sweet to me, I was mistaken

Oh no, not that again

But that's so like Candy


She just can't face the day

So she turns and melts away


Here lie the records that she scratched

And on the sleeve I find a note attached

And it's so like Candy


"My Darling Dear, it's such a waste"

She couldn't say "goodbye", but "I admire your taste"

And it's so like Candy

So like Candy
