A Candy Wrapper Story

We were a group of Nerds, there was Kit Kat,
Mike and Ike, I'll never forget handsome Heath ;
           and Slo Poke and I was Lemonhead cause I had,
blonde hair, and there was Whatchamacallit who always;
                       had Goobers.

     One Pay Day we won 100 Grand gambling,
at a casino machine called, Milky Way and went on a Spree;
          it was a Marathon and we were spending Mounds,
of Skittles until I said, Take 5 before we have;
                        like Zero. 

     So me and those Airheads each took our own paths,
for me it was a Rocky Road to happiness until Henry;
           O Henry is my Starburst and dream,
he loves me Now and Later and not just because of the;
                        big money Skor.
