lyrics

Can you hear that sound? Can you smell that smell? They say that on a warm night like tonight you can smell the spelt flour on the wind. Lock your doors up tight. That’s the Fructose Four. At the end of the night when they close up shop, the owner leaves and locks the doors and that’s when we pop. Slipping in between the cracks in the streetlights, we’re a bunch of sugar addicts getting ready for a big night. Tossing wrappers on the street cause the world is my trash can. I’m downing sweet treats until I can barely stand. Everything in here looks so appetizing. I can feel my blood pressure rising. And the owner comes back when he forgets his keys. I see his eyes get wide when he spots me from the street. So we pull him inside and shut off all the lights. Can you guess what happens next? If you see us on the street, then you better walk the other way. If you see our tag (It’s scattered flour) then I’ll see you after hours. Back at the Sugar Shack I get ready for a sugar crash but it’s not long before I break into my secret stash of pixie sticks and licorice and Mexican cola and then I pass out in a sugar coma. If you see us on the street, then you better walk the other way. If you see our tag (It’s scattered flour) then I’ll see you after hours. I used to be a good boy like you but my appetite for shit just grew and grew. So if you’ve gotta hold up a shop to get your fix I say do it what you want and do it quick. At the end of the night when they lock the doors, that’s when we come back searching for more. I’ve hit every candy counter in the whole damn city and I’ll pound that sugar down until I’m mean and silly. I brush my teeth at night like the dentist always tells me to. I eat my greens like my momma always tells me to. But when I see a counter full of candy I can’t help but going fucking crazy. If you see us on the street, then you better walk the other way. If you see our tag (It’s scattered flour) then I’ll see you after hours.
