Candy Store - Jessica Keenan Wynn, Alice Lee, Elle McLemore (Heathers)
Are we gonna have a problem?
You got a bone to pick?
You've come so far why now are you pulling on my dick?
I'd normally slap your face off
And everyone here could watch
But I'm feeling nice
Here's some advice
Listen up biatch!
(I like)
Lookin' hot, buying stuff they cannot
(I like)
Drinking hard
Maxin' dad's credit card
(I like)
Skippin' gym, scarin' her, screwin' him
(I like)
Killer clothes, kickin' nerds in the nose!
If you lack the balls, you can go play dolls
Let your mommy fix you a snack
(Whoa-oh!)
Or you could come smoke, pound some rum and coke
In my Porsche with the quarterback
(Whoa-whoa-whoa!)
Honey, what you waitin' for?
Welcome to my candy store
Time for you to prove you're not a loser anymore
And step into my candy store
(Guys fall)
At your feet, pay the check, help you cheat
(All you)
Have to do, say goodbye to Shamu
(That freaks)
Not your friend, I can tell in the end
(If she)
Had your shot, she would leave you to rot
'Course if you don't care, fine, go braid her hair
Maybe Sesame Street is on
(Whoa-oh!)
Or forget that creep and get in my Jeep
Let's go tear up someone's lawn
(Whoa-whoa-whoa)
Honey, what you waitin' for?
Welcome to my candy store
You just gotta prove you're not a pussy anymore
And step into my candy store
You can join the team
(Or you can bitch and moan)
You can live the dream
(Or you can die alone)
You can fly with eagles, or if you prefer
Keep on testing me and end up like her
Veronica, look!
Ram invited me to his homecoming party!
This proves he's been thinking about me!
Color me stoked
I'm so happy!
(Whoa) Oh-whoa-oh-oh!
Honey, what you waitin' for-
Shut up, Heather!
Step into my candy store
Time for you to prove, you're not a lame-ass, anymore
And step into my candy store
It's my candy store
It's my candy
It's my candy store
It's my candy
It's my candy store
It's my candy store

There wasn't an official music video because it was from a musical. However, there is a lyric video.
I chose Candy Store by Heathers (singers in the musical) because the song is fast-paced, impulsive, and passionate, which is exactly to my taste. I can be a very critical and judging person on numerous things. I get usually bored with relaxing, restful, and calming songs. My impulsive behavior and reckless decision-making are reasons why I get into fights so often.
In the musical, ruthless Heather Chandler offers Veronica two possibilities. Be authoritative, like Chandler, or be nobody and go back to her loser friends. Powerful and merciless or a full zero?
At the start verse, they start a fight. The song is about Veronica joining Heather Chandler’s side and gaining popularity and power. One quote in the song stood out from the others. “You just gotta prove you’re not a pussy anymore”, this is relatable because in the present day, it’s terrific truth about the school system. Ride or die?
The lyrics were slightly out of context XD. I have an acceptable understanding of the English language because I have learned it since I was 6. I am amazed by the voices and the chorus is one of a kind. This song will stay on my playlist.

I listened this song few times because it wasn't easy to get into the situation at first. But then I started to think the lyrics and thought that maybe there's a small piece of truth within it while the show keeps going on.
For me it seems that this song is trying to express the pressure teenagers have in school while trying to fit in. And the anxiety they may have along the choice (that they think they have to do - which is not true) between popularity and being themselves with their friends.
I have never seen the musical but you have opened the scene so well that even I can get the headpoints of what's happening. For me, your analysis is easy to understand and I am impressed of those many adjectives you use to tell about the music and the vibe it gives.
