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) |
