IMITATION OF LIFE (R.E.M.)

Charades, pop skill

Water hyacinth

Named by a poet

Imitation of life

Like a coin in a frozen pond

Like a goldfish in a bowl

I don't want to hear you cry

That sugarcane that tasted good

That's cinnamon, that's Hollywood

Come on, come onNo one can see you try

You want the greatest thing

The greatest thing since bread came sliced

You've got it allYou've got it sized

Like a Friday fashion show

Teenager freezing in the corner

Trying to look like you don't try

That sugarcane that tasted good

That's cinnamon, that's Hollywood

Come on, come on

No one can see you try

No one can see you cry

That's sugarcane that tasted good

That's freezing rain, that's what you could

Come on, come on

No one can see you cry

This sugarcane, this lemonade

This hurricane, I'm not afraid

Come on, come on

No one can see me cry

This lightning storm, this tidal wave

This avalanche,

I'm not afraid

Come on, come on

No one can see me cry

That sugarcane that tasted good

That's who you are, that's what you could

Come on, come on

No one can see you cry

That sugarcane that tasted good

That's who you are, that's what you could

Come on, come on

No one can see you cry
