Candidate Lyrics

One, two, three

That's how elementary it's gonna be

Just fine and dandy

It's easy

Like taking candy from a baby

Primitive country

Rich in minerals, you

Pay them with beads

Tip the generals

It's easy

Like taking candy from a baby

The hard part is learning about it

The hard part is breaking through to the truth

The hard part is learning to doubt

What you read, what you hear, what you see on the news.

Foreign policy

Made above my head, well

No one asked me

They just laughed and said

It's easy (it's so easy)

Like taking candy from a baby

It's easy (it's so easy)

Like taking candy from a baby

(One, two three, ah...)

(One, two three, ah...)

Once they get you sucked into the system

Once they get you under control

The hard part is knowing how to resist

The grip that they keep on your mind and your soul

So in the end

We just compromise

And pretend

If you close your eyes

It's easy (it's so easy)

Like taking candy from a baby

It's easy (it's so easy)

Like taking candy from a baby
