Innocent Bliss
Gummy bears!
Lollipops!
How yummy…
Can’t stop, won’t drop,
Eyes pop…
Candy shoppe!
We must go,
Me and Joe…
Chica -- Chico,
Best buds
Let’s divvy
Up this grub,
One for each…
Yum, yum
Tasty dum-dums…
Come on chum,
You want some
Bubble gum?
Have some Dante ~
Okay…
We are all done
Now, let’s run and
Have some fun
