Regina Spektor - SugarMan Lyrics

Skies are blue when I'm with you

They turn to grey when you're away

I'm not your doll, I'm not your pet

But I'm not my own ever since we met

I edit my thoughts, I edit my words

I eat and drink 'til nothing hurts

But one of these days, love will turn to hate

And I'll bite the hand that feeds me cakes



Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy

Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy



Sugar rot your teeth, it'll make you too high

But there's not a lot sugar can't buy

In a world of salt, of sweat and tears

Sometimes you need a little sugar to get through the years

They set a big table, didn't save you a seat

Just find a lap to sit on and you'll get something to eat

When you serve the tea, watch the sugar dissolve

Just don't go confusing sugar with love



Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy

Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy

Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy

Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy



My mama was cold and she was told

She'd never been young, so she never grew old

She took a deep breath and never exhaled

Lived the rest of her life from under a veil

I grew up quick, but I grew up strong

Didn't get to be her baby too long

Whenever I'd eat, I just craved sweet

What I couldn't get at home, I got in the streets



Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy

Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy

Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy

Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy

Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy

Sugar man, sugar man, sugar man, sugar man

Sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy



(Sugar man, sugar man, sugar daddy, sugar daddy)

(Sugar man, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy)

(Sugar man, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy)

(Sugar man, sugar daddy, sugar daddy, sugar daddy)
