Ben Folds - Best I'mitation Of Myself

Best I'mitation Of Myself
Ben Folds

I feel like a quote out of context
so i can be for you what you want to see
withholding the rest
i got the gesture and sounds
tt's uncanny, yeah, you think it was me
to lose my southern accent
got the timing down
do you think i should take a class
did i make me up, or make the face till it stuck

i do the best imitation of myself
phe problem with you speech
you gave me was fine
and i swore i was listening
i liked the theories about my little stage
but i started drifting
around the part about me acting my age
now if it's all the same
i juggle one handed
i've people to entertain
do some magic tricks and
the best imitation of myself
maybe i'm thinking myself in a hole, wondering

who i am when i ought to know
straighten up now time to go
fool somebody else
fool somebody else
last night i was east with them and west within

trying to be for you what you wanna see
but i can't help it with you
now if it's all the same
don't want you hanging out with no one but me
the good and bad comes through
it comes from the same place
and if my mind's somewhere else
i do the best imitation of myself

you won't be able to tell
yes it's uncanny to see
you'd really think it was me
the best imitation of myself
the best imitation of myself
