Lyrics
[Chorus]
Candles of love
Candles of love
Candles of love
Candles of love
[Verse 1]
Middle aged, so my shit has changed
Said, "Danger" my middle name
Dino Jr., feel the pain
Don't shake my hand 'cause my finger's sprained
And my body old, and we just met
Scared money's my best bet
Take a look at my injuries
My leg cooked, I'm in bed shook
And I'm past cooked, I been fricasseed
Take a list of my nightmares
Fell down a whole flight of stairs
Ass broke for like two years
Bones knocking like, "Who's there?"
Bone doctor's like boos hoo
And these soft seats is like, ooh, yeah
'Cause I'm out of season like Wu Wear, yeah
[Chorus]
Candles of love
One, two, aye
She used to say, aye, aye
She used to
Candles of love
Aye
She used to say
Aye, one, two
[Verse 2]
Mumi used to say
"I will beat you till the cat screams in your stomach"
I ain't know what she was talkin' bout, But I swear I understund it
Kept my money on I owe you one, my bullshit on a hunnid, aye
Peace be unto the fuck around, hallowed be the find out
Get up, fight another round, ain't no time for timeouts
Had a dream 'bout falling down, had a dream I shot my eyes out
Papi used to say, "You wanna cry? I'll give you somethin' to cry 'bout"
[Refrain]
One, two, one, two
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
I'm Bob Ducca
Put me in the sharpshooter
Shoot me with a bazooka
Cook me into shakshouka
Let me be a peacemaker
Roast me like a teenager
And punch me like it's Beat Sabre
And take the 43 acres
I place before your feet
And try to keep the pace up as I snake the forty east
I will hold this little button and become this altered beast
To fulfill the programmin' done on me by Data East
Make me paint a masterpiece
Then I'm going back to
[Chorus]
Candles of love
Aye, aye, you still don't know me though, one, two, aye
[Verse 4]
I-I don't love all my memories, so I cannot set 'em free
And even if I did, I know that they would still come back to me
I'm the owner with the master key, I got a felt factory
A moat and a big ass wall that was built by me
So look how fast I zip around it
I'm like Humpty with my wall, I have it, I fell off it
Then I get back on my horse and write a hundred songs about it
Map out what I gotta do, double back and steady doubt it
[Chorus]
Candles of love
Candles of love
Candles of love
Candles of love
