I've thrown away my toys, even my drum and train.
I wanna make some noise with real live aeroplanes.
Some day I'm going to fly, I'll be a pilot too.
And when I do, how would you like to be my crew?
On The Good Ship Lollipop.
It's a sweet trip to a candy shop
Where bon-bons play
On the sunny beach of Peppermint Bay.
Lemonade stands everywhere
Crackerjack bands fill the air
And there you are
Happy landing on a chocolate bar.
See the sugar bowl do the tootsie roll
With the big bad devil's food cake.
If you eat too much ooh-ooh
You'll awake with a tummy ache.
On The Good Ship Lollipop
It's a night trip into bed you hop
And dream away
On The Good Ship Lollipop.

To The Glimmerest Glimmer That Ever Winked A Starlight,
Pinkamena Diane Pie humbly requests your presence at the big send off for Captain Gummy's latest nummable cruise ship, the Good Ship Lollipop tomorrow at the lake at 1200 hours sharp. Please RSVP by the time you finish reading this invitation! The suspense is KILLING US.
-P.D.P.
To The Pinkest And Sweetest Of All The Pies,
At your insistence, I am writing my acceptance of your invitation (even though you're standing right in front of me) and shall arrive with bells and whistles!
-S.G.
To The Ever Kind And Uber Swell Starry Light of Glim-Glim,
Pinkamena Diane Pie asks with a heavy heart for your support in mourning the loss of the Good Ship Lollipop. May it rest peacefully at the bottom of the lake... (And may the fishes find it deeeelicious!) The "Super Sorry Your Sweet Sails Sank Captain Gummy" Party will be held at Sugarcube Corner at 1900 hours!
--P.D.P.
To The Super Duper Party Pony Pinkie Pie,
My deepest sympathies for the loss of Captain Gummy's ship. Count me in for the party. Though might I suggest next time that you use coated nougat instead of solid chocolate for life boats? They're more buoyant.
Also, Twilight says that candy, however sweet, is still technically littering when it's at the bottom of a lake. I can help with clean up!
-S.G.
To The Fully Redeemed, Highly Esteemed, Incredibly Fun, Never Outdone, Splenderous, Awesomest, Bestest, Brighter Than The Rest-est, Always Up To The Test-est, Unless She Forgets To Study, Which Never Happens, Amazing Gal Pal, Starlight Glimmer,
Gummy says he'll think about it. Also, thanks a bunch for the help!
-P.D.P.
Okay that's friggin' adorable.

Pinkie replaced the monkey on my back, not only because she's lighter than that fat simian and she wanted to give me a break, but also to earn a more advantageous position when whining for me to write this little... something.
