Candyman - Siouxsie And The Banshees

Sickly sweet, his poison seeks

For the young ones who don’t understand

The danger in his hands

With a jaundiced wink see his cunning slink

Oh trust in me my pretty one

Come walk with me my helpless one

Candyman

Syrup lies upon your tongue

Ge latine saliva spills

The flash of a guillotine a smile

Candyman — oh candyman

No pity for him, their misery screams

Unspeakable things

A cool missile, yes it’s in his smile

With open arms to welcome you

Beware the masked pretender

He always lies, this candyman

Those lips conspire in treachery

To strike in cloak and dagger, see!

Candyman — oh candyman

And all the children, he warns ``don't tell,''

Those threats are sold

With their guilt and shame they think they’re to blane

For candyman — oh candyman
