Verse
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.
Chorus
That sugar-cane, that tasted
good, that cinnamon, that's
Hollywood.
Come on, come on, no one can see
you try.
Verse 2
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.
Chorus
That sugar-cane, that tasted
good, that cinnamon, that's
Hollywood.
Come on, come on, no one can see
you try.

Chorus
That sugar cane, that tasted
good, that's freezing rain,
that's what you could.
Come on, come on, no one can see
you cry.
Bridge
This sugar cane, this lemonade,
this hurricane, I'm not afraid.
Come on, come on, no one can see
me cry.
This lightning storm, this tidal
wave, this avalanche, I'm not
afraid.
Come on, come on, no one can see
me cry.
Chorus
That sugar cane, that tasted
good, that's who you are, that's
what you could.
Come on, come on, no one can see
you cry.
That sugar cane, that tasted
good, that's who you are, that's
what you could.
G Em Am C D D4 D Em (Let ring)
Come on, come on, no one can see you cry.
