How Sweet It Is

As I went with my friends MIKE and IKE 
Like THREE MUSKETEERS we went for a hike 
Down a ROCKY ROAD we watched for birds 
Down 5TH AVENUE...we all looked like NERDS
 
To find a DOVE - it paid 100 GRAND
But we stopped to watch a MARATHON band 
They looked like AIR-HEADS, they all had some zits 
They call themselves the WATCHAMACALITS
 
My friend the SLO-POKE he's a little bit funky 
He ate too many BOSTON BAKED BEANS...now he is CHUNKY 
My other friend HEATH left Henry and me 
In search for some SKITTLES...his sweet tooth SPREE
 
But all that he found, were KIT KAT and SNOW CAPS 
And some sticky LIFESAVERS he threw down on our laps 
My name that they call me..is MR. GOOD BAR
I'm an old JOLLY RANCHER with a GALAXY car
