Sugar



Lyrics

They like their diamonds sweet and low
Their cookies cutter queens
Simple syrup over doze, and cotton candy dreams
Let a big bucket and put me in, serving it all like savarine
Oh, let's have a bit of taste of me

And all the boys say gimme gimme
gimme gimme gimme some of that sugar
Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme something sweet
They want my sugar and spice, and everything nice
and they beg for a taste of my cherry pop
But I'm never never never never ever
gonna give them a piece!

Mama always told me it takes a little bit of honey
If you want to attract yourself a bee
But I kinda like with a little sting
I'm gonna make them buzz
When they hear me sing, they'll swarm around me
like I was a queen!

And all the boys say gimme gimme gimme
gimme gimme some of that sugar
Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme something sweet
They want my sugar and spice, and everything nice
and they beg for a taste of my cherry pop
But I'm never never never never ever
gonna give them a piece!
No, never!

Don't you go change me 'cause it only like you want me
Oh, but this girl you seek, she's just pieces of me
And I'm more than just a topping
on the marshmallow frosting
on your butter chocolate cake
And all the boys say gimme gimme
gimme gimme gimme some of that sugar
Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme something sweet
They want my sugar and spice, and everything nice
and they beg for a taste of my cherry pop
But I'm never never never never ever
gonna give them a piece!
No, I'm never never never never ever
gonna give them a piece!
I'm never never never never ever
gonna give them a piece!
