Candy took the pearls, got ahead of the girls
Got on top and found the secret entry
(Are you satisfied?)
Through neon doors, ‘cross killing floors
She got sucked into a champagne desert
(Are you satisfied?)

Daddy said, "I'll break your bones
If you come home dressed in peacock clothes"
Mother said, "Quit the show"
She didn't want the neighbours to know
Candy had to quit the show

Well, Candy didn't care when she started her affair
With the studs and the mares of the night
(Are you satisfied?)
(Teddy knows the rule of the underground school)
(He's got Candy wrapped around his finger)
(Are you satisfied?)

Daddy said, "I'll break your bones
If you don't get your tricks off the phone"
Mother said, "Quit the show"
She didn't want the neighbours to know

(Candy's goin' bad, got a room to let)
(Candy's goin' bad, got a pimp named Ted)
(Candy's goin' bad, long green is where it's at)
(Candy's goin' bad, she got stars in her head)
