Imitation of life (REM)

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
Cmon cmon no one can see you try

You want the greatest thing
The greatest thing since bread came sliced.
Youve got it all, youve 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
Cmon cmon no one can see you try

No one can see you cry

Thats sugarcane that tasted good
Thats freezing rain thats what you could
Cmon cmon no one can see you cry

This sugarcane
This lemonade
This hurricane, Im not afraid.
Cmon cmon no one can see me cry
This lightning storm
This tidal wave
This avalanche, Im not afraid.
Cmon cmon no one can see me cry

Thats sugarcane that tasted good
Thats who you are, thats what you could
Cmon cmon no one can see you cry

Thats sugarcane that tasted good
Thats who you are, thats what you could
Cmon cmon no one can see you cry


When I was sixteen, I used to love this song very much. Listened to it almost accidentally a few days ago, when I picked out my old Modern Rock cassette to be my editing companion :D brings back so many memories.. I especially love the lyric.
