Imitation of Life

charades, pop skill

water hyacinth, named by a poet.

imitation of life

like a koi in a frozen pond

like a goldfish in a bowl

I dont want to hear you cry



thats sugarcane that tasted good

thats cinnamon thats hollywood

c'mon c'mon no one can see you try



you want the greatest thing

the greatest thing since bread came sliced.

you've got it all, you've got it sized.

like a friday fashion show teenager

freezing in the corner

trying to look like you dont try



thats sugarcane that tasted good.

thats cinnamon thats hollywood

c'mon c'mon no one can see you try



no one can see you cry



thats sugarcane that tasted good

thats freezing rain thats what you could

c'mon c'mon no one can see you cry



this sugarcane

this lemonade

this hurricane, i'm not afraid.

c'mon c'mon no one can see me cry

this lightning storm

this tidal wave

this avalanche, i'm not afraid.

c'mon c'mon no one can see me cry



thats sugarcane that tasted good

thats who you are, thats what you could

c'mon c'mon no one can see you cry



thats sugarcane that tasted good

thats who you are, thats what you could

c'mon c'mon no one can see you cry
