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. 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 don't 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. That sugar cane that tasted good. That freezing rain, that's what you could. C'mon, c'mon on no one can see you cry. This sugarcane This lemonade This hurricane, I'm not afraid. C'mon, c'mon no one can see you cry. This lightning storm This tidal wave This avalanche, I'm not afraid. C'mon, c'mon no one can see me cry. That sugar cane that tasted good. That's who you are, that's what you could. C'mon, c'mon on no one can see you cry. That sugar cane that tasted good. That's who you are, that's what you could. C'mon, c'mon on no one can see you cry.
