Candy Necklace lyrics

She wears a candy necklace Thoughts of incest and insects Climb her piano spine Lips red as the exit sign Johnny dark's in the corner Placing yet another order (chorus) Walls melting like ice in scotch His face ticks like a pocket watch Excuse me marilyn monroe Your skirt's like a ufo My heart's on the harlequin floor The president walks in the door With tortoise shell moon glasses Sweat dripping like molasses Paper planes everywhere Now his palms are growing hair Johnny dark's in the corner Placing yet another order (chorus) I haven't slept for ages My eyes turn to bird cages If it's true time flies Why oh why can't i? Johnny dark's in the corner Spying for the secret order The best laid plans of men and mice Often turn to whiskey and rye
