The Candy Man Can!  July 13, 2010 - August 14, 2010

When I was looking over my dream journal last night (dream can be read on my blog), I came across an old entry entitled "Candy Man". After reading this section of my dream journal, I found myself humming the tune to "The Candy Man". Remember the lyrics from Willy Wonka?

Anyway, I thought it would be fun to see what kind of stories others could come up with after reading the lyrics to this song. So, read the lyrics, or listen to the song on youtube, and see what kind of story it inspires you to write. Any genre is welcome! Go luck!

For those of you who don't know the song:

Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it in dew
Cover it in chocolate
and a miracle or two?

The candyman
The candyman can
The candyman can cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good

Who can take a rainbow
Wrap it is a sigh
Soak it in the sun
and make a strawberry lemon pie?

The candyman?

The candyman
The candyman can
The candyman can cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good

Willy Wonka makes
Everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
You can even eat the dishes

Who can take tomorrow
Dip it in a dream
Separate the sorrow
And collect up all the cream?

The candyman

Willy Wonka can

The candyman can cause he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good
And the world tastes good cause the candyman thinks it should
