Cherry Licorice Lyrics

All I want to eat is cherry licorice
I don't care if it sounds ridiculous
Even the birds and the bees
Eat how they damn well please

I don't wanna work for no damn dead waitress
I don't have that kind of patience
Sitting around all day
With never word to say

Raccoons dead
The city's windy
All I think about is Cindy
All the ladies and gents
Are covered in excrement

All I want to eat is cherry licorice
I don't care if it sounds ridiculous
Even the birds and the bees
Eat how they damn well please

High along the hill through the thistle
Pass the factory across the trestle
The teacher slit my wrist
Forever class I miss

He was like a fire
She was like a feather
It was hell to live together
I bid them all so long
I'm happy,them days are gone

All I want to eat is cherry licorice
I don't care if it sounds ridiculous
Even the bird and the bees
Eat how they damn well please

All she wants to drink is lemon spritzer
She don't care with the lemon spritzer
Who wants to spend their time
Choking on lemon

Cause I'm high on Halloween candy
Cause I'm high on Halloween candy

Ballad of Lou the Welterweight

All I want to eat is cherry licorice
I don't care if it sounds ridiculous
Even the birds and the bees
Eat how they damn well please

I don't wanna work for no damn dead waitress
I don't have that kind of patience
Sitting around all day
With never word to say

Raccoons dead
The city's windy
All I think about is Cindy
All the ladies and gents
Are covered in excrement

All I want to eat is cherry licorice
I don't care if it sounds ridiculous
Even the birds and the bees
Eat how they damn well please

High along the hill through the thistle
Pass the factory across the trestle
The teacher slit my wrist
Forever class I miss

He was like a fire
She was like a feather
It was hell to live together
I bid them all so long
I'm happy,them days are gone

All I want to eat is cherry licorice
I don't care if it sounds ridiculous
Even the bird and the bees
Eat how they damn well please

All she wants to drink is lemon spritzer
She don't care with the lemon spritzer
Who wants to spend their time
Choking on lemon

Cause I'm high on Halloween candy
Cause I'm high on Halloween candy

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.
