Lyrics
Sickly sweet, his poison seeks For the young ones who don't understand The danger in his hands With a jaundiced wink See his cunning slink Oh, trust in me, my pretty one Come walk with me, my helpless one Candyman Syrup lies upon your tongue Gelatin saliva spills A flash of a guillotine a smile Candyman -- oh Candyman No pity for him, their misery screams Unspeakable things No pity for him, their misery screams Unspeakable things Candyman A cool missile, yes, it's in his smile With open arms to welcome you Beware the masked pretender He always lies, this candyman Those lips conspire in treachery To strike in cloak and dagger, see! Candyman -- oh Candyman And all the children, he warns, "Don't tell," Those threats are sold With their guilt and shame They think they're to blame For Candyman Candyman Candyman Candyman Candyman
