Candy cane girl, don't you know your name, girl? (Yeah)
Twelve people gonna ask you just the same, girl
Twelve people gonna ask you just the same, girl
What a world! christmas once a year, girl
That's three hundred and sixty four tears, girl
That's three hundred and sixty four tears, girl
So when christmas finally comes
And nobody's got a gun
And you think it might be fun to hang around
Think again girl
And nobody's got a gun
And you think it might be fun to hang around
Think again girl
(Why don't you open me up?
Huh?)
Huh?)
Candy cane boy, don't you know your name, boy?
Nine people gonna tell you just the same, boy
You're alone son, in the middle of a million
And nobody knows how to talk to children
Nine people gonna tell you just the same, boy
You're alone son, in the middle of a million
And nobody knows how to talk to children
Oh, when christmas finally comes
And nobody's got a gun
And you think it might be fun
To get a new toy, think again boy
And nobody's got a gun
And you think it might be fun
To get a new toy, think again boy
(Oh)
Oh, when christmas finally comes
And no-one's got a gun
And you think it might be fun
To make a stand, think again man
And no-one's got a gun
And you think it might be fun
To make a stand, think again man
