Candy Store Songtext
von Minor Majority

So you finally found what you′re looking for
Talented actress working part-time at the drugstore
Across the street, where it's impossible not to meet
There′s another one just next door
With seamless eyes, she's nothing but cheekbones
But she's pretty young, I won′t last that long
My life is a pick and choose, it′s a second-rate candy store
I've had a taste of almost everything
But the flavour don′t last for long
So you move on, I've seen them come and go
I take pride in the things I own
The books in my shelf and the records piled up against the wall
They′re my own, I know each and every one
I've got friends with the sweetest wives
They′ve got beautiful kids, they lead meaningful lives
In the suburbs, just out of town, love is all around I'd be happy to join them soon, buy a house and build up a home
And if I'm lucky I′ll have kids I can call my own
Just to see them grow, to see them come and go
Just to see them grow, to see them come and go
This one girl thought highly of me
Said she didn′t expect me to be so smart
Have a heart, in fact she didn't expect it at all
I used to long for those pretty eyes
Until they spotted a friend of mine with a job
And a suit, he′s got a record collection too
My life is a practical joke that you just can't repeat
When you′ve seen it once you've seen pretty much what there is to see
So you move on, I′ve seen them come and go
Moving on, I've seen them come and go
Moving on, moving on, we're moving on, moving on
