I don't know what I want
anymore
Nothing looks pretty enough
Nothing looks tasty enough
or even sounds sweet
Do I want something extravagant and
positively god-like?
No, let's be realistic
I just want something good enough to eat,
good enough to like,
love, and love me back
but nothing so yummy
wants me as their treat

(repeat later)
Hey you! 
I saw you there, 
between the
jelly beans 
and gummy bears 
and I was wondrin' 
if you'd be my treat
You look delicious, delectable,
and sweet

My eyes feast on fantastical ideas
while my mind starves on negativity
Healthy?
No, but that's the way it's been
Changeable?
Doubtful, I've been trying for so many years
If the kinda candy that was meant 
for me
is out there, can I have it please?
I'm getting sorta hungry here,
is it so much to ask?

(repeat)

Hey you!  
I saw you there,
between the
jelly beans
and gummy bears
and I was wondrin' 
if you'd be my treat
You look delicious, delectable 
and sweet

My eyes are full and overflowing with
those fantastical ideas
and my heart is malnourished 
and weak and I fear it may
STOP
But I go on searching for my reward
like a little lost puppy
longing for an owner
I search, though, not for an owner
but my sweet,
my treat,
my happiness

(repeat)

Hey you!  
I saw you there
between the
jelly beans 
and gummy bears
and I was wondrin'
if you'd be my treat
you look delicious, delectable,
and sweet

..oh so sweet
