歌詞

I found your house by the gumdrop gate

Moon on the glass and a sugar snake

You said, “Come in, child, if you dare”

So I stepped through the frosting air

Candy bones in a silver bowl

Black licorice for the devil’s soul

You grinned like trouble in a silk top hat

And I liked it, baby, just like that

Now the clock goes tick, tick, sweet

My heart got stuck on the treat

One bite, then I’m under your spell

That midnight taste knows me too well

Sweet Tooth Midnight

I want that bite, bite, bite

Sweet Tooth Midnight

You make the dark taste bright

Sweet Tooth Midnight

Oh, I can’t quit you

Sweet Tooth Midnight

I want the whole thing too

You keep your pearls in a candy jar

Laugh like smoke from a cheroot bar

Cherry lips and a wicked grin

Tell me where the feast begins

I saw your shadow in a taffy line

Cutting through the orange rind

You fed me a peach with a bitter core

Then I begged for another more

Now the clock goes tick, tick, sweet

My heart got stuck on the treat

One bite, then I’m under your spell

That midnight taste knows me too well

Sweet Tooth Midnight

I want that bite, bite, bite

Sweet Tooth Midnight

You make the dark taste bright

Sweet Tooth Midnight

Oh, I can’t quit you

Sweet Tooth Midnight

I want the whole thing too

You’re a pretty little poison, yes

Wrapped in gold and a Sunday dress

If the house burns down at dawn

I’ll still be here, licking on

Sweet Tooth Midnight

I want that bite, bite, bite

Sweet Tooth Midnight

You make the dark taste bright

Sweet Tooth Midnight

Oh, I can’t quit you

Sweet Tooth Midnight

And I know you knew it too
