Poison Candy Heart Lyrics
You foolish little waste of time
You pucker up like lemon-lime
I'm sinking into your corduroy
I saw you kissing the paper boy
You're smart enough to keep it light
You call me up with a landmine
Driving drunk with a baby in the trunk
And the whole town knows you're no good,
You're no good, you're no good,
Hardly ever say 'yes'
Oh baby try the sofa,
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
You got a poison candy heart
You're serious, but wonderful
Reckless as a chainsaw
Thrilling in the bedroom
And I'm average in so many ways
You only want what's best for you
I do too, I do too, I do too
Hardly ever say 'yes'
Oh baby try the sofa,
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
You got a poison candy heart
Hardly ever say 'yes'
Oh baby try the sofa,
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
You're happiest when I'm not
I can live with that
You try to kill us apart
You got a poison candy heart
You pucker up like lemon-lime
I'm sinking into your corduroy
I saw you kissing the paper boy
You call me up with a landmine
Driving drunk with a baby in the trunk
And the whole town knows you're no good,
You're no good, you're no good,
Oh baby try the sofa,
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
You got a poison candy heart
Reckless as a chainsaw
Thrilling in the bedroom
And I'm average in so many ways
You only want what's best for you
I do too, I do too, I do too
Oh baby try the sofa,
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
You got a poison candy heart
Oh baby try the sofa,
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
I can live with that
You try to kill us apart
You got a poison candy heart

It reminds me of another song on the album (Everybody Hustles Leo). It's about a guy be in love with a girl who's got problems
In Leo, the guy is unsure if he should trust her because of her problems. In Candy Heart, he recognizes her flaws and accepts them. For everything wrong with her, there's something apparently special that he can live without.
