Right at the front door I recognised the perfume
The scent was perfect in the dusk by the moon
There must be many ways to ask her to my room
Why didn't I dare?

Well, every hour I try to get somethin' done
Out on the weekend when I'm just havin' some fun
I'm windin' up with none, just zeros, no 1's, just space with no air

I get: "bye-bye baby-baby bye baby-baby bye-bye...
Real sugar, I don't wanna climb no walls
Real ugar, that's what I want or none at all
Real sugar, sweet as a sweet can be
Real sugar, that's what I want and what I need
That's what I need

Yeh, every Friday I'm gattin' ready to roll
I want her blue eyes start sayin' "hi" and "hello"
But I can always tell she'd rather be alone with some other guy

I get: "bye-bye baby-baby bye baby-baby bye-bye...
Real sugar, I don't wanna climb no walls
Real sugar, that's what I want or none at all
Real sugar, sweet as a sweet can be
Real sugar, that's what I want and what I need
Real sugar, I don't wanna climb no walls
Real sugar, that's what I want or none at all
Real sugar, sweet as a sweet can be
Real sugar, that's what your've got so what's for me? hey, what's fo me?

I turn myself in, trun trun trun
I turn myself out. outside and in
Gimme gimme real sugar
I don't wanna climb no walls
