Starfish and Coffee |
It was 7:45 we were all in line |
2 greet the teacher Miss Cathleen |
First was Kevin, then came Lucy, third in line was me All of us where ordinary compared to Cynthia Rose |
She always stood at the back of the line |
A smile beneath her nose |
Her favorite number was 20 and every single day |
If U asked her what she had 4 breakfast |
This is what she’d say |
Starfish and coffee |
Maple syrup and jam |
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine |
And a side order of ham |
If U set your mind free, baby |
Maybe you’d understand |
Starfish and coffee |
Maple syrup and jam |
Cynthia wore the prettiest dress |
With different color socks |
Sometimes I wondered if the mates where in her lunchbox |
Me and Lucy opened it when Cynthia wasn’t around |
Lucy cried, I almost died, U know what we found? |
Starfish and coffee |
Maple syrup and jam |
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine |
And a side order of ham |
If U set your mind free, honey |
Maybe you’d understand |
Starfish and coffee |
Maple syrup and jam |
Starfish and coffee |
Cynthia had a happy face, just like the one she’d draw |
On every wall in every school |
But it’s all right, it’s 4 a worthy cause |
Go on, Cynthia, keep singin' |
Starfish and coffee |
Maple syrup and jam |
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine |
And a side order of ham |
If U set your mind free, baby |
Maybe you’d understand |
Starfish and coffee |
Maple syrup and jam |
(starfish in your coffee, you will love it, told ya so) |
(starfish in your coffee, you will love it, told ya so) |
