Lyrics

Candy Shower
Words & Music by Dave Nachmanoff – 1995


Well he wears a suit of armor, when he’s doing it down on Wall Street
But Linda she’s a gypsy, she could almost make him care
When she says, “Meet me at the Carnival, I’ll wear a red carnation”
No suddenly he’s opening, and it’s really got him scared

CHORUS:

It’s a candy shower, thinks he’s swerving into a breakdown
Candy shower, like the frozen grin on a sad sad clown
It’s a candy shower, thinks he’s swerving into a breakdown
He’s soft in the middle with a brittle shell
So soft in the middle with a brittle shell

No he’s slamming at the buttons, and he’s shakin’ like a cocktail
Then it’s seven Hail Mary’s, as he feels that cable snap
He’s tumbling and turning, cuz he can’t hold out much longer
Dealing with his feelings, as his shell begins to crack

(Repeat chorus)

Bridge:

He’s falling, he’s falling, who knows what comes after?
Calling, he’s calling, hear the panic through his laughter

Now it’s raining chocolate kisses, from a paper mache target
It’s the San Antone fiesta, with a thousand pink balloons
Sweeter than the sugar cane, or any tootsie roll kisses
Now they’re dancing to the sugar beat, underneath that Texas moon

It’s a candy shower, he’s not swerving into a breakdown
Candy shower, when he looks in her eyes, he could almost drown
It’s a candy shower, he’s not swerving into a breakdown
He’s still soft in the middle… Still soft in the middle

Dave proudly endorses Access Bags and Cases and has toured with them for many years.
