LYRICS
Hangin' round downtown by myself
And I had so much time
To sit and think about myself
And then there she was
Like double cherry pie
Yeah there she was
Like disco superfly
I smell sex and candy here
Who's that lounging in my chair
Who's that casting devious stares
In my direction
Mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this surely is a dream
Hangin' round downtown by myself
And I had too much caffeine
And I was thinkin' 'bout myself
And then there she was
In platform double suede
Yeah there she was
Like disco lemonade
I smell sex and candy here
Who's that lounging in my chair
Who's that casting devious stares
In my direction
Mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this surely is a dream
I smell sex and candy here
Who's that lounging in my chair
Who's that casting devious stares
In my direction
Mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this must be my dream

After years not hearing this cover it popped into my head this morning. Forgot about this masterpiece

I've watched this video so many times in the last few years. This is the best cover I've ever heard of this song. It always keeps me coming back for more. ❤

Ima fan of anyone that can sing. Don't care what they look like. This dude is hella talented and didn't expect him to blow like this!!!! I'm blown away

[thebeastoffeasterpark]

The BEST version of this song I've heard in my life. AMAZING job amd hilarious intro!

[joshkennedy]

You did Marcy's playground a justice there, and made it your own at the same time

[davgar]

I don’t think he’s underrated it’s just that he’s blowing up and people are now beginning to know him and his music.

[lettuceisgood]

I was listening the this song the other day but as soon as I heard him sing it I completely forgot the original Hahaha this cover was amazing! Love it im hooked on Allen stone!

[filteredcreativity]

If his voice was a blanket I would wear it in public.

Hangin' round downtown by myself
And I had so much time
To sit and think
about myself
And then there she was
Like double cherry pie
Yeah there she was
Like disco superfly

[Chorus]
I smell sex and
candy here
Who's that lounging
in my chair
Who's that casting
devious stares
In my direction
Mama this surely
is a dream

Hangin' 'round downtown by myself
And I had too
much caffeine
And I was thinkin' 'bout myself
And then there she was
In platform double suede
Yeah there she was
Like disco lemonade
[Chorus]
I smell sex and
candy here
Who's that lounging
in my chair
Who's that casting
devious stares
In my direction
Mama this surely
is a dream
Mama this surely
is a dream
Yeah mama this must
be my dream


I smell sex and
candy here
Who's that lounging
in my chair
Who's that casting
devious stares
In my direction
Mama this surely
is a dream
Mama this surely
is a dream
Yeah mama this must
be my dream
