“Sex & Candy”
Marcy Playground

B                      G                         F#
Hangin’ round, downtown by myself and
I had so much time to sit and think about myself
And then there she was, like double cherry pie;
Yeah, there she was; like disco super-fly…

(Stop; riff)

(no chord)         B   G   A
I smell sex and candy here.
Who’s that loungin’ in my chair?
Who’s that castin’ devious stares in my direction?
A                                  D          A
Mama, this surely is a dream.  Yeah.
B                          G               D          A            B   G   F#
Yeah, mama, this surely is a dream.  Dig it.

Hangin’ round, downtown by myself, and
I’ve had too much caffeine and I was thinkin’ about myself
And then there she was
In platform double suede,
Yeah, there she was
Like disco lemonade…

CHORUS

Yeah, mama, this surely is a dream.  Yeah.
Yeah, mama, this surely is a dream.  Yeah.
B                          G                                 end on D
Yeah, mama, this must be my dream.
