Lyrics

There lives a pretty girl
And her face is like a full moon that's dancing in the night
She's quick as lightning cursing at the sky
But dug her heart into the earth out of sight

Mm would you marry her?
Mm

And on the corner stands a pretty boy
Whose smile could kill a population
Selling sugarcane and feeling paranoid
She'd never think of procreation

Mm would you marry him?
Mm

Sow the land with the candyman
He's honest and will always want to hold your hand
He smells like cherries
He'll call you pretty
You'll have a modest living, but he'll tuck you into bed
Oh oo
Mm

Well aren't you lucky?
Your daughter turned out lovely and well-behaved
She could marry into money
Go off and have a family
Then make it go away
Mm

There lives a little girl who's got half a mind
To fly across the hemisphere and never look behind
She's big as thunder lighting up the night
She'll crash into your living room and burn it down on sight

Would you marry her?
Mm
