V-1
Once I smelled the coffee didn’t take me very long.
To take a look behind me and wonder what went wrong.
Love starts out smooth as honey ends up mired in strife.
Don't think I'll ever figure this crazy thing called life.

Chorus
Like a box of chocolates
little riddle's tucked inside.
Don't know what your gettin'
'til It smacks you 'tween the eyes
Way to many heartaches
where piece of mind should be.
There ain't no rhyme or reason
for A Chocolate Recipe.

V-2
Can be rough and bitter or silky smooth and sweet
and that riddle in the middle will knock you off your feet.
But nothin’ seems to matter when your born to be a slave.
To an appetite for chocolate that goes beyond the grave.

Chorus
Like a box of chocolates
little riddle's tucked inside.
Don't know what your gettin'
'til It smacks you 'tween the eyes
Way to many heartaches
where piece of mind should be.
There ain't no rhyme or reason
for A Chocolate Recipe.

bridge
Chewed on that old question
to be or not to be
Wound up with depression
and blisters on my knees.

V-3
Found faith up on the mountain, doubt down at the sea.
Searched for the candy maker but the door was shut to me.
Went to ask the mountain, and the mountain told me why.
Took it to the ocean and he swore the mountain lied.

Chorus
Like a box of chocolates
little riddle's tucked inside.
Don't know what your gettin'
'til It smacks you 'tween the eyes
Way to many heartaches
where piece of mind should be.
There ain't no rhyme or reason
for A Chocolate Recipe.

The questions just keep naggin'
but there's one thing that I know
with my last breath I'll be beggin'
for a Hershey bar to go.
