Silent Tree Music - Song Lyrics 

SUGAR   HIGH,   SUGAR   LOW
( Children's song lyrics )
Copyright © 2000 - mickterry.com

First you've got me hopping,
all pumped up 'cause you're here,
excited far beyond
my ability to hold it in.
& then you've got me bouncing
off every wall that's near,
a ricochet that seems
to be never coming to an end.
First you give me energy,
but then it's turned around,
& I'm falling down a slide that's just no fun.

    SUGAR HIGH, SUGAR LOW:
    you're a little too sweet,
    a little too sweet for me.
    SUGAR HIGH, SUGAR LOW:
    you're a little too sweet,
    a little too sweet.

You might be like candy,
all sweetness to the taste:
A sugar-coated rush that is
pleasing for a little while.
But what starts fine and dandy
turns into sure decay.
& now you've got a frown
where there once had been a great big smile.
First you give me energy,
but then it's turned around,
& I'm falling down a slide that's just no fun.

    CHORUS

        After all that I've read lately
        about artificial sweets,
        you're just one more that I can do without.

I was never nervous
before you came around.
But now it just appears
that my nerves have been out on a ride.
High up a roller coaster,
then crashing to the ground,
& now I've got my doubts
I can make it through this downward slide.
First you give me energy,
but then it's turned around,
& I'm falling down a slide that's just no fun.

    CHORUS
