HERE LIES THE POWDER AND PERFUME,
THE PRETTY CLOTHES ARE SCATTERED 'ROUND THE ROOM.
AND IT'S SO LIKE CANDY.
HERE LIES THE LIPSTICK AND THE FACE,
THE COLOURED TABLETS KEEP IT ALL IN PLACE.
AND IT'S SO LIKE CANDY.
SO LIKE CANDY.
WHAT DID I DO TO MAKE HER GO,
WHY MUST SHE BE THE ONE THAT I HAVE TO LOVE
SO LIKE CANDY?
HERE LIES A PICTURE OF A GIRL
HER ARMS ARE TIGHT AROUND THAT LUCKY GUY.
AND IT'S SO LIKE CANDY.
AND IN HER EYES, A CERTAIN LOOK
I THOUGHT I'D SEEN THE LAST OF LONG AGO.
AND IT'S SO LIKE CANDY,
SO LIKE CANDY.
WHAT DID I DO TO MAKE HER GO,
WHY MUST SHE BE THE ONE THAT I HAVE TO LOVE SO...
I REMEMBER THE DAY THAT PICTURE WAS TAKEN,
WE WERE SO HAPPY THEN,
BUT THAT'S SO LIKE CANDY.
SHE SEEMED SO SWEET TO ME, I WAS MISTAKEN,
OH NO, NOT THAT AGAIN,
BUT THAT'S SO LIKE CANDY.
SHE JUST CAN'T FACE THE DAY
SO SHE TURNS AND MELTS AWAY.
HERE LIE THE RECORDS THAT SHE'S SCRATCHED,
AND ON THE SLEEVE I FIND A NOTE ATTACHED,
AND IT'S SO LIKE CANDY.
"MY DARLING DEAR, IT'S SUCH A WASTE."
SHE COULDN'T SAY "GOODBYE", BUT "I ADMIRE YOUR
TASTE."
AND IT'S SO LIKE CANDY,
SO LIKE CANDY,
SO LIKE CANDY,
SO LIKE CANDY,
SO LIKE CANDY, OH, OH, OH, OH,
OH, OH, OH, OH, OH,
MM-MM-MM-MM, YEAH, YEAH,
OH, OH, OH, OH,
UH, UH, UH -
OH YEAH.

YOU HAD YOUR OWN WAY ONE TOO MANY TIMES AND NOW ,
YOU'RE GOING TO FIND OUT WHAT IT'S LIKE,
JUST WHAT IT'S LIKE, NOW YOU'RE A MESS.
YOU WANTED SOMETHING YOU COULD NEVER POSSESS.
YOU WENT YOUR OWN WAY ONE TOO MANY NIGHTS,
YOU TREATED HER LIKE SOME SMALL OVERSIGHT.
WHAT IN THE WORLD MAKES HER THINK THAT SHE CAN
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN?
SHE'S GONNA MAKE YOU SUFFER TONIGHT,
TO TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN.
AND WHEN YOU'RE WORTHY OF HER THEN SHE MIGHT
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN,
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN.
YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE THE ANSWER TO HER PRAYERS,
THE PERFECT GIFT THAT EVERY GIRL PREFERS.
BUT THAT'S THE TROUBLE 'CAUSE EVERY GIRL STILL THINKS YOU'RE
HERS.
SO THERE YOU ARE WITH YOUR GOLD CHAINS JANGLING,
YOUR LUCKY CHARMS AND YOUR JEWELLERY DANGLING.
BUT WHEN SHE SAW YOU SHE TURNED AND RAN
TO TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN.
WHOA!
SHE'S GONNA MAKE YOU SUFFER TONIGHT,
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN.
AND WHEN YOU'RE WORTHY OF HER THEN SHE MIGHT
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN,
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN.
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN.
YOU COULDN'T SEE THAT THE JUVENILE THINGS YOU DO,
OH, WOULD DRAG YOU DOWN AND NOW THAT THE JOKE'S ON YOU.
YOU'RE PRETTY COLD, YOU END AS YOU START
WHEN YOUR FACADE ISN'T FALLING APART.
SO NOW YOU'RE STANDING IN YOUR UNDERWEAR,
WELL, YOU KNOW JUST HOW IT FEELS FOR HER.
YOU'RE HALFWAY THERE, YOU KNOW
THAT SHE CAN TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN.
SHE'S GONNA MAKE YOU SUFFER TONIGHT,
TO TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN.
AND WHEN YOU'RE WORTHY OF HER THEN SHE MIGHT
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN,
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN,
TURN YOU FROM A PLAYBOY INTO A MAN.
OH OH!
OH, OH, OH, OH, OH....
BABY! BABY!
BABY, HO! HO! HO!
