When I was only a little kid
Oh, the things I did
I'd always search for the sweetest treats
That I would eat
(Candy canes,
'Mallow fluff,
By the pound)
But there was one treat I liked the best
You could never guess
A treat my mommie would give to me
If I was sweet
(And I was,
All the time,
She was proud)
A very sweet confection
It was like crack to me
Denied it, I would jones real bad
My manners were perfection
So I could get the sweets
I'd do my 'angel act'
So I could get my 'crack' - and it was
Jelly beans and peanut butter
I was addicted... I would get the DTs
If it was denied to me
Jelly beans and peanut butter
I was addicted... I would get the DTs
If it was denied to me
One fine Spring day while I sat in school
I began to drool
Because two hours had passed since I
Had my last fix:
Frosted Flakes
Chocolate Eggs
Creamy Jif
I told the teacher I had to go
To the toilet bowl
The fool, she let me just leave the class
And as I passed
Candy stores
I went in
Went to town
I stole a jar of skippy
And swiped some jelly beans
And ran straight out of the front door
The owner ran to get me
I quickly fled the scene
I poured the jelly beans
Into the peanut cream, and had my
Jelly beans and peanut butter
I was addicted... I would get the DTs
If it was denied to me
Jelly beans and peanut butter
I was addicted... I would get the DTs
If it was denied to me
