G CAnd the warden keeps the data on your favorite brands.
Jelly beans and cookie dough
Country restroom on a radio
I got a number on my name
It’s hard to rise above the shame
I’m a branded man made in the mold.
These terms engulf the waking mind.
Like cherry, grape and lemon-limeLike candy corn and licoriceLike bubble gum and Swedish fish
It happens to me all the time.
Living in a candy jail
With peppermint bars
Peanut brittle bunk beds
And marshmallow walls.
Where the guards are graciousAnd the grounds are grand
And the warden really listens
And he understands.
