The AI Ballad of the Forbidden Sugar Mountain

A modern folk ballad for the AI age. This is the story of a strange delivery, a dispatcher's mistake, and a mountain of sugar that became everyone's delight... and one man's curse.
🎸 An acoustic folk-rock arrangement, blending warm guitars with a lyrical tale of absurd abundance. Part of the lyrics and melody were born from a collaboration with artificial intelligence, creating a unique digital-age campfire story.

[Verse 1]
I live right by the Sugar Mount.
A trucker brought it, nice old chap.
Dispatch made one big mix-up
And dumped pure sugar in my lap.

The neighbors run to see the sight,
They start to dance with all their might.
And tourists come to film the scene,
To post it online, bright and keen.

[Bridge]
But I just watch with a heavy heart.
They're having a ball, I'm set apart.
So dig it up, my friends, go on,
This sweet stuff's mine... and yet it's gone.

[Chorus]
Sugar! Sugar! Sweet delight…
(Honey Crave!)
Ooh, Girls!
(Crave is everywhere!)
I just can't fight it
My cross to bear!

[Verse 2]
I give it free to all the street,
For jam or tea, a sugary treat.
One brought me moonshine, what a laugh,
That's not upon my chosen path.

On sugary slopes, both weird and wild,
Grow candy trees that drive folks wild.
The kids with shovels, without fears,
Build candy castles, sweet and clear.

[Chorus]
Sugar! Sugar! Sweet delight…
(Honey Crave!)
Ooh, Girls!
(Crave is everywhere!)
I just can't fight it
My cross to bear!


[Verse 3]
A crowd so happy, what a scene!
With buckets, spoons – a sugar dream.
Come on, grab it, take your share,
This sweetness flowing, free and fair!
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
Then bulldozers came, a roaring end.
Doc Razumovsky, state-sent friend.
They buried it all, left just a patch.
A verdict said: "This sugar's trash!"

[Chorus]
Sugar! Sugar! Sweet delight…
(Honey Crave!)
Ooh, Girls!
(Crave is everywhere!)
I just can't fight it
My cross to bear!
