CHORUS 1:  I'm gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           I'm gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           No more sugar, no more bliss
           And you know that it's chocolate that I'm most gonna miss

VERSE 1:   Sugar is my drug of choice
           Drowns out all that interior noise
           But it makes me wired, but it makes me fat
           But it rots my teeth and I don't need that

CHORUS 2:  I'm gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           I'm gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           No more sugar, no more bliss
           And you know that it's cheesecake that I'm most gonna miss

VERSE 2:   I've tried weed but I'm a klutz with a match
           Opiates give me a pink rash to scratch
           Coke doesn't mix with hay fever and asthma
           So I sink into a sugar miasma

CHORUS 3:  I'm gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           I'm gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           No more sugar, no more bliss
           And you know that it's donuts that I'm most gonna miss

MIDDLE-8:  Biochemistry is so complicated
           Sugar and alcohol cravings are related
           So half my family are drunks, as predicted
           The rest of us, to sugar so addicted

CHORUS 4:  But we're gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           We're gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           No more sugar, no more bliss
           And you know that it's ice cream that we're most gonna miss

VERSE 3:   Can I give up gulab jamon?
           Can I give up creme de marron?
           Can I give up pumpkin pie?
           I don't know, but I gotta try

CHORUS 5:  I'm gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           I'm gonna kick it, kick it, kick it today
           No more sugar, no more bliss
           And you know that it's licorice that I'm most gonna miss
           And you know that it's cookies that I'm most gonna miss
           And you know that it's caramel corn that I'm most gonna miss
           And you know that it's CHOCOLATE that I'm most gonna miss
