once upon a time there was candy and dan
things were very hot that year
all the wax was melting in the trees
he would climb blaconies, climb everywhere, do anything for her
oh, danny boy
thousands of birds, the tiniest birds, adorned her hair
everything was gold
one night the bed caught fire
he was handsome
and a very good criminal
we lived on sunlight and chocolate bars
it was the afternoon of extravagant delight
danny the daredevil
candy went missing
the days last rays of sunshine cruise like sharks
i want to try it your way this time
you came into my life really fast and i liked it
we squelched in the mud of our joy
i was wet-thighed with surrender
then there was a gap in things
and the whole world tilted
this is the business
this is what we're after
