Imitation of Life Lyrics

    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
