For E.S.V.M. My candle burns at both ends; Wow, how do you hold it! It will not last the night; I guess from the middle?! But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends Then you have to keep it horizontal! It gives a lovely light! Wax goes everywhere! My candle burns at both ends; Yippee! We can see again! It will not last the night; Two flames are better than one! But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends Aren't they? It gives a lovely light! I guess I'm speaking out of turn!! My candle burns at both ends; Zowee! A party! It will not last the night; My night's ninety years long! But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends How many times do we need to listen to Sting? It gives a lovely light! Who's Sting?!! My candle burns at both ends; Watt's happening?! Try the new bulbs!! It will not last the night; Things couldn't be better! But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends Sorry, things just got better! It gives a lovely light! Things just got best of all!!!!!!!!!!!
