Brink of The Clouds/Candylad (Peel Sessions) Lyrics

Jonathan Peel!
1-2-3-4

Bring on the clouds
Why you why you why you why you wait
Head for my (?)
Baby baby baby baby baby baby

Well I know what you want
I know what I want

One rosy (?) on your neck
it's criminal when you read
I saw fame and fortune
and everything that goes with it
in my palm
and the rice wine that we drank
disintigrated in a laser storm
and the pickups on my guitar are rusty
and so is my scabbard knee

...for me...

Candylad, candylad, candylad, candylad
he's a candylad, he's a lad made of candy
he's a lad made of candy
(bring it up, boys)
candylad, he's a lad made of candy
candylad, he's a lad made of candy
candylad, he's a lad made of candy

and the sugar and spice
in his armpits
is twice as nice as the caramel
between his toes

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
