Cotton Candy Lyrics
(Cotton candy, cotton ca— candy)
(Candy, candy, candy, candy, candy, candy)
[Verse 1]
Hey, I'm whatchu need, I'm whatchu want
I got it all, a carnivale
I'll bring you up, I'll take you down
I'm sticky sweet, stuck in your teeth like cotton candy
[Chorus]
Cotton candy (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
Cotton candy (Ah-ah, ah-oh)
Cotton candy (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
I'm whatchu want, not whatchu need (Ah-ah, ah-oh)
[Verse 2]
Hey, I don't know why (Why)
I'm whatchu want, but it's the truth (Truth)
I'm not your lie (Lie)
Let them eat cake, let them eat pie (Pie)
Or better yet, let them eat cotton candy
[Chorus]
Cotton candy (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
Cotton candy (Ah-ah, ah-oh)
Cotton candy (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
I'm whatchu want, not whatchu need
Cotton candy skies
Sweet as apple pie
I can't help but shine
Brighter than the starlight in the sky
[Chorus]
(Cotton candy)
(Cotton candy) Yeah!
Cotton candy
I'm whatchu want, not whatchu need
So whatchu want?
[Break]
(So whatchu want?)
(Woah!)
[Chorus]
Cotton candy (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
Cotton candy (Ah-ah, ah-oh)
Cotton candy (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
I'm whatchu want, not whatchu need
[Post-Chorus]
Cotton candy skies (Woah!)
Sweet as apple pie
I can't help but shine
Brighter than the starlight (Hey!)
Cotton candy skies (Ow!)
Sweet as apple piе
I can't help but shine (Woah!)
Brighter than thе starlight in the sky (Ooh!)
