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 don´t want to hear you cry
That´s sugarcane that tasted good
That´s cinnamon that´s 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 don´t try
That´s sugarcane that tasted good
That´s cinnamon that´s Hollywood
C´mon c´mon 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
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
That´s sugarcane that tasted good
That´s who you are, that´s what you could
C´mon c´mon no one can see you cry
That´s sugarcane that tasted good
That´s who you are, that´s what you could
C´mon c´mon no one can see you cry
Water hyacinth, named by a poet
Imitation of life
Like a koi in a frozen pond
Like a goldfish in a bowl
I don´t want to hear you cry
That´s sugarcane that tasted good
That´s cinnamon that´s 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 don´t try
That´s sugarcane that tasted good
That´s cinnamon that´s Hollywood
C´mon c´mon 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
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
That´s sugarcane that tasted good
That´s who you are, that´s what you could
C´mon c´mon no one can see you cry
That´s sugarcane that tasted good
That´s who you are, that´s what you could
C´mon c´mon no one can see you cry
