[Verse 1]
Candy Darling
Who knows why the caged bird even sings?
For high-priced lowlives
Red bodega roses, you and me

[Chorus]
I never wanna leave
Your perfume candy dream

[Verse 2]
So, queen of South Queens
We never did stop cheerin' for you, babe
And your wig, blonde, rolls home
Wavin' from the latest uptown train

[Chorus]
I never wanna leave
Your perfume candy scene

[Verse 3]
So, Candy Darling
I brought bodega roses for your feet
And Candy, my sweet
I hope you will be comin' home to me
