Candymine Lyrics
Xtc
Dig, dig down...
Dig, dig down...
(chorus)
Candymine, candymine, tunnelling to honey for a girl so fine
Candymine, candymine, tunnelling to honey for a girl so fine
Wake up every morning when the clock strikes six
Pick up my girlfriend and we pick up sticks
Digging for her sweet love and I cant waste time
Working down that candymine
(chorus)
Finish every evening when the clock strikes five
Home to my queen bee and our private hive
Digging for her sweet love and I cant waste time
Working down that candymine
(chorus)
Dig, dig, down...
(spoken)
Weve got to get the candy out of the candy mine!
Lets get working!
(chorus x 4)
