  • Oh Candy why did you do it
    You should've called me on the telephone
    I didn't expect for you call me
    'Cause I didn't think that you were alone
    So alone

    [Chorus:]
    Oh, Candy worked so hard
    At doin' what he thought was right
    It really, really doesn't mean a thing
    Oh, Candy worked so hard
    At doin' what he thought was right
    It really, really doesn't mean a thing

    Oh Candy why did you do it
    You didn't stick a needle in your vein
    You just got so damned depressed
    We all liked you except yourself

    [Chorus]

    You, you won't be comin' around no more
    You, you won't be comin' around no more
    Oh Candy why did you do it
    I didn't think you heard a word that I said. Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
