Man they ruled back when I jammed them in middle school and listening to them again they still rule. Seeing them live has been on my bucket list since I was like 12 lol.

I have a more disturbing understanding of these dark lyrics. Let's start with the band name....Marcy's Playground. Who plays in a playground? Usually very young children. What type of child is named Marcy? A girl. What do young girls (and boys) like to eat? Candy. It’s all coming together now. Sex and Candy, a song often mistaken as nonsense, is nothing more than an admission of the band’s need to molest children, and most likely, their favorite victim, Marcy, was so special that she became forever part of the band's name. The main character of the song displays many characteristics of the typical child molester. He favors areas where children play, namely downtown, where many playgrounds can be found. He is antisocial, sitting alone. He is nervous and introverted, claiming to have had too much caffeine, and to be thinking about himself. He sits there, watching the girl and thinking of how she must taste like lemonade and about the cherry that she still holds. He claims the swing to be “his chair,” and as she plays on them, she recognizes his evil stare, and looks his way. The child’s glances, to the molester, are seen as devious cries for sex and corruption of her innocence. He cry’s out in his head to the girls mother, “Mama this must be my dream.” In his dream he lures her with candy, and performs the crime, with the smells of both sex and candy lingering sinfully in his nose. THAT IS WHAT THIS SONG MEANS TO ME. IF YOU DISAGREE, GOOD FOR YOU!

Around the time this album was released, I saw Marcy Playground play a small bar in Ann Arbor, Michigan. It was a great, intimate show. I really loved the band at the time. After the show, I checked out the merch table. They had t-shirts with a small MP logo on the upper-left front side of the shirt. I asked the guys manning the table what I thought was a reasonable question, particularly given the exorbitant price of the shirts: "Is there anything on the back?" And they proceeded to ridicule me mercilessly. "Like what a giant skull?" "Or, or, a naked chick riding huge boner?" And they continued on like that between each other, laughing uproariously, even as I wandered away. That experience definitely left a bad taste in my mouth.

Gave this a run recently. S&C definitely the stand out track, it wasn’t anything special imo

Yeah in retrospect there’s not a whole lot here. It’s just like a compilation of all the quiet parts from the Pixies’ discography really.
