A lollipop, she wanted to devour
But her painted lips were tainted and sour
Goodness sakes alive
She broke out in hives
Hidden by a mask, she chose to cower

Inside her mouth the lollipop was stuck
But her joy of sucking had run amuck
She pulled and she jerked
Nothing she did worked
What a terrible time for rotten luck

Photographs were taken and passed around
Many folks found them to be quite profound
Her weepy eyes held tears
Visible were her fears 
As the lollipop sucker, she's renowned

Not exactly the best way to gain fame
I heard tell she has never been the same
Had to move out of town
Became a circus clown
She's called Candy, after changing her name

I'm just going to quote Dwayne Johnson...“A candy ass is something you don’t want to be. And the best way that I can describe a candy ass is: Life is so much easier, I have found, when you are not full of s**t. And a candy ass is completely full of s**t.” Looks like that lolly sucker fits his description.
