Apple Commercial 2021 Lyrics
Who can take the sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it in chocolate and a miracle or two
The candy man
Has he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good
Cause the candy man thinks it should
[Full Original Lyrics]
Who can take the sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it in chocolate and a miracle or two
The candy man
The candy man can
The candy man can because he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good
Who can take a rainbow
Wrap it in a sigh
Soak it in the sun and make a strawberry lemon pie
The candy man
The candy man
The candy man can
The candy man can because 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 candy man
Willy Wonka can
The candy man can
The candy man can cause he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good
And the world tastes good
Cause the candy man thinks it should
