The sugar man will take away all your loneliness and pain,
His powers will work out the puzzles in your aching brain.
He's got magics far stronger than any living, breathing witch,
And if you let him, the sugar man will make you his begging bitch.
Drive out demons and have the stamina of a young, strong wolf,
The earth will be yours to shape as clay, the seas yours to engulf,
See into other's minds and run a hundred miles, with no wink of sleep,
Read a library of books in half an hour, and over mountains deftly leap.
But in return,
The sugar man will know you,
The sugar man will own you,
You'll lose something precious you never knew you had.
And when you one day find this, you'll be just a little sad.
You'll never, not ever, work off the shame,
You'll never, not ever, be the quite the same.
