Genuine Imitation Life

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Chameleons changing colors While a crocodile cries People rubbing elbows But never touching eyes Taking off their masks Revealing still another guise Genuine, imitation life [Verse 2] People buying happiness And manufactured fun Everybody's doing What everybody's done You count on lots of people Who can only count to one Genuine, imitation life [Verse 3] All the pretty clouds Are a lovely shade of black You find the right direction Someonе tears up all the track Peoplе wish of crosses Fingers crossed behind their back Genuine, imitation life [Verse 4] Old friends get together (Old friends get together) But it's solitaire they play (But it's solitaire they play) Everybody's rainbows (Everybody's rainbows) Dressed in different shades of gray (Dressed in different shades of gray) It's a lovely place to visit But I wouldn't want to stay Genuine, imitation life
