| I feel like a quote out of context | |
| Withholding the rest | |
| So I can be for you what you want to see | |
| I got the gesture and sound | |
| Got the timing down | |
| It’s uncanny, yeah, you’d think it was me | |
| Do you think I should take a class | |
| To lose my southern accent | |
| Did I make me up, or make the face till it stuck | |
| I do the best imitation of myself | |
| The “problem with you” speech | |
| You gave me was fine | |
| I liked the theories about my little stage | |
| And I swore I was listening | |
| But I started drifting | |
| Around the part about me acting my age | |
| Now if it’s all the same | |
| I’ve people to entertain | |
| I juggle one handed | |
| 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 nite 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 | |
| The good and bad comes through | |
| Hanging out with no one but me | |
| Now if it’s all the same | |
| It comes from the same place | |
| And if my mind’s somewhere else | |
| You won’t be able to tell | |
| I do the best imitation of myself | |
| Yes, it’s uncanny to see | |
| You’d really think it was me | |
| The best imitation of myself | |
| The best imitation of myself |
| I feel like a quote out of context | |
