Candy Lyrics by Nessa Barrett

Had me on my knees, I did my best work
Gave it up for free, and still I get hurt
If I charged a fee, I might feel better
Silly little me, thinking love was more than sex work

And I smell you on my skin, love is such a sin
Silly little me, thinking love was more than sex work

Sad and naive, taking candy from a stranger
Never would’ve been so sweet, you only get what you paid for
If you’re gonna leave, leave money on the dresser
Silly little me, thinking love was more than sex work

And I smell you on my skin, lost my innocence, love is such a sin
Silly little me, thinking love was more

Baby, buy me something fancy if you wanna call me candy
I’m not crying if I’m dancing, baby, baby, call me candy
I’m not leaving empty-handed, if you want it, call me candy
I feel dirty, I kept standing, pay up, baby, call me candy

Silly little me, thinking love was more than sex work
