I want candy
(You know what I want)
I want candy
(Let's go)
I know a girl who's tough but sweet
She's so fine, she can't be beat
Sets summer sun on fire
Let's go, yeah
You know what I want now
You know what I want now
You know what I want now
Come on
I want candy
(That's what I want man)
(That's what I want)
I want candy
(I gotta have it)
I want candy
(It's what I want)
(It's what I want)
I want candy
So now off to see her when the sun goes down
Cause there ain't no finer girl in town
She got the plans, what the doctor ordered
(Oh, you know)
Baby girl, you're so sweet
You make my mouth water
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Come on
You know what I want now
You know what I want now
You know what I want now
Come on
I want candy
(That's what I want man)
(That's what I want)
I want candy
(I gotta have it)
I want candy
(It's what I want)
(It's what I want)
I want candy
C-A-N-D-Y
Say I want candy
(I want candy)
It's the only thing I want
It's the only thing I need
So give it to me please eeh
Candy on the beach there's nothing better
But I like the candy all wrapped in a sweater
Someday soon I'll make you mine
And then I'll have candy all the time
Uuuh whoa
I want candy
(That's what I want man)
(That's what I want)
I want candy
(Give it to me now, baby, yeah)
I want candy
(I can't wait no more, baby, yeah)
I want candy
I want candy
(Sing it with me now, baby)
I want candy
(I want candy)
(I want candy)
I want candy
(I said I'd even need the wrapper)
I want candy
The song "I Want Candy" by Hop is a fun and playful track about the singer's desire for candy and a girl who is tough yet sweet. The lyrics are straightforward and repetitive, but it still manages to create a party-like atmosphere. The first verse describes his admiration for a girl who has everything he desires and sets the summer sun on fire. The chorus is a repetitive call for candy, with the singer declaring that it is the only thing he wants and needs. The second verse talks about the singer's plans to see the girl he desires when the sun goes down, and he describes her as being someone who makes his mouth water.
The song is an ode to candy, but it can also be interpreted as a metaphor for wanting something you can't have. The singer's desires for candy and the girl he admires are unattainable, and the repetition of the chorus highlights this yearning. Despite this, "I Want Candy" is a fun and catchy song that can put a smile on anyone's face.
