LYRICS
Skies are blue
When I’m with you
They turn to grey
When you’re away
I’m not your doll
I’m not your pet
But I’m not my own
Ever since we met
I edit my thoughts
I edit my words
I eat and drink
Till nothing hurts
But one of these days
Love will turn to hate
And I’ll bite the hand
That feeds me cakes
Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man
Sugar Daddy, Sugar Daddy, Sugar Daddy, Sugar Daddy
Sugar rot your teeth
It’ll make you too high
But there’s not a lot
Sugar can’t buy
In a world of salt
Of sweat and tears
Sometimes you need a little sugar
To get through the years
They set a big table
Didn’t save you a seat
Just find a lap to sit on
And you’ll get something to eat
When they serve the tea
Watch the sugar dissolve
Just don’t go confusing
Sugar with Love
Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man
Sugar Daddy, Sugar Daddy, Sugar Daddy, Sugar Daddy
My mama was cold
And she was told
She’d never been young
So she never grew old
She took a deep breath
And never exhaled
Lived the rest of her life
From under a veil
I grew up quick
But I grew up strong
Didn’t get to be
her baby too long
Whenever I’d eat
I just craved sweet
What I couldn’t get at home
I got in the streets
Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man, Sugar Man
Sugar Daddy, Sugar Daddy, Sugar Daddy, Sugar Daddy

This song is criminally underrated!
It's calm and catchy at the same time
Only Regina can get me to listen to a song with 'sugar daddy' repeating in the chorus
Ah, a perfect complement to St. Vincent's "Sugarboy" from 2017. May Annie Erin and Regina Ilyinichna perform together in a future Grammys as Clark and Lipa did in 2019. Prost!
Touché!
It's not the worst she's gotten us to listen too 😂
Already know😅
HAHAHAHAHAHA
"just find a lap to sit on and you’ll get something to eat" Glad to see she hasn't lost that raunchy sense of humor.
😂😂
Best song on the album imo
As much as I love her raw songs, fully fleshed out songs like this one and Small Bills are also amazing
the lyrics are just genius
I was supposed to go to sleep but now I must hear all her little masterpieces !
I am supposed to get up and go to work, but... I have to hear all her little masterpieces (at least one time 😇).
Me too!
It’s 4am
I’m not your doll
I’m not your pet
But I’m not my own
Ever since we met
I love that part
LYRICS are in video description
@@FilippoTuretta Okay? I was citing a part I liked, not writing the lyrics.

Words cannot describe the beauty and wonder I feel every time I listen to Regina! :') 🎉
Regina really articulates the plights of women well her! The line of there's no seat at the table for you, so just find a lap to sit on, all too true about how women are expected to get things in their careers and lives 😔
My favourite from this album. And I love that picture on the cover 🥰.
Mine too.. Hello from Russia!)
*standing ovation*
I don’t know if I am emotionally ready for Regina songs.
This track has a bit of cosmic/karmic irony feel to me.
Especially appreciated the line about not confusing sugar with love.
What a beautiful piece of songwriting, and that hook/chorus just kicks.
I feel like Spektor really let her hair down on this album and had fun making it. Here, her voice serves as the ever present observer of human life.
To me, this song speaks to the fantasy of the financially helpful, albeit temporary, story of a quid pro quo dater. Or a sugar baby.
It looks like she becomes maligned or resentful or her benefactor, and is rebelling from the conservative nature of her mother while Seeking the love she is missing "on the street".
All of Regina's songs are just so completely human. Sometimes it hurts just how real they are.
Your subtle commentary on the world has forever moved me. Thank you!! Love this song, wow.
I love the adventurous stories listening to these new songs embarks you upon.
Oh the memories I have from listening to this song! :') ❤️🎧💞😍
Thank you Regina. We love you!
i love her voice very much
Was listening to you all the time in high school. I don’t know why I stopped. Your music is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Let's call this what is: pure genius
This definitely makes me think..
This song feels a lot like a Beatles ballad idky
wait, this is even more perfect??!
I’m super happy that I checked my youtube- it’s written beautifully ❤️
Wow!!!!!
this is so catchy
Oh my! I love it! I’ll see you next Regina!
This one's brilliant!
Спасибо Вам большое!)Любовь любовь

Never really been a fan, heard this today & fell in love with it.
okay but,, i totally wouldn't mind being fed cakes and having a lap to sit on(?)
💕💕💕💖💖💖💘💘💘💘
Hello! I couldn´t find a comment saying what I am about to write, if somebody did, my apologies. I like Regina and her unique style but there is a "Nirvana- Oh me" rythm copied in here.... and Nirvana was actually doing a cover of the Meat Puppets... listen to it and tell me what you think..... I immediately started humming and remembered I had listened to that tune before
😳 I listened to it. It has the same tune as this song.
I just listened to the Nirvana song and 5 seconds in I said yup, same tune. Doesn’t change how I feel about Regina’s version though (both this and Nirvana’s cover are a lot better than the Meat Puppets original)
Lana Del Rey fans should get into this lol
I accidentally sang out loud the chorus part while in the bus. it was awkward...
Sounds like Elton John ballads.... in a good way!
I hate to say it but...I feel like the world is filled with much more sweet these years than salt, and boy do I miss all those sweat and tears. I hate all the rotting teeth.
In a world of salt
Of sweat and tears
Sometimes you need a little sugar
To get through the years
The metaphor has gone over my head. Care to explain what you mean with salt and sweet?

RFS Israel Dear Regina Very Cool
Ok. I'm not convinced the last record is true if this what becomes of it. Regina. Sugar daddy means something. Why are you trying to rehab it?
i think you hope the term is dead, but it surely is not. it is as strong as ever, and many women are seeking it. Perhaps you want her to be politically correct, but understand that is about you. art describes life, whether it passes your desired tests or not. she is using it on her own terms. “Just don’t go confusing Sugar with love” “What I couldn’t get at home I got in the streets”. This is moving real life stuff, she is not here to fulfill your desired politic. Feel free to get over yourself and experience life as it is, not what you believe it should be. Idealism is killing the world.
Ah, a perfect complement to St. Vincent's "Sugarboy" from 2017. May Annie Erin and Regina Ilyinichna perform together in a future Grammys as Clark and Lipa did in 2019. Prost!

Less she-males, more real women.
