When the clock strikes midnight Suddenly things begin happening In the candy shop All the candy dolls start dancing Just having fun Whirling and spinning like a top When the handsome chocolate soldier boy And the sweet sugar doll do the minuet You will love them, just adore them It's a sight you'll never forget Over in the corner is a saucy lemon drop Dancing ring around the rosy with a lollipop See the chocolate chicks doing fancy tricks Twirling candy canes made out of peppermint sticks But the moment when the dawn appears Suddenly everything's quiet as before For they know that soon a little old lady Is coming to open up the store Everything is scattered here and there Everywhere, no one cares who did this or that And the dolls will all be smiling For they know she'll blame the pussycat
