Imitation Of Life Lyrics

BRIDGE ONE

OOOOOOH, OOOOH, OH

ANGER BURNS

Whatever happened to the guy I knew

A media creation, a monster grew

Our story had an unhappy end

But this could change, I still call him friend

"Take my advice, and listen to me

A great opportunity, can't you see

I only want what's best for you

The deal of a lifetime, what more can I do"

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU HEARD THIS TODAY???

Some stupid sucker says "It's great, we luv ya babe"

For them this bullshit, it's their whole life

Cut through their bullshit with a knife

IMITATION OF LIFE

BRIDGE TWO

OOOOOH, OOOOH, OH

ANGER BURNS

Bands dress like women with hairspray and lace

I'd pass an image law, stick it in your face!

Let's see how long they keep dressing this way

Wearing this image twenty four hours a day!

MOSH TALK PART

DID YOU EVER THINK FOR YOURSELF??

JUST ONCE, DID YOU EVER THINK??

THAT'S ALL I WANT TO KNOW

MOSH CHORUS PART

IMITATION OF LIFE, living out a lie

Your'll never be right, IMITATION OF LIFE

WHY ARE YOU HERE??, YOU'RE TAKING UP MY SPACE

The new imperfect race, IMITATION OF LIFE

LEAD BREAK

OOOOOOOH, OOOOH, OH

ANGER BURNS

Whatever happened to the guy I knew

A media creation, a monster grew

Our story had a unhappy end

But this could change, I still call him friend

There's nothing I hate more

Than all these plastic people

With all their plastic promises

And all their plastic deals

They just can't be themselves

And live their own lives out

They're just an imitation

Of what life's all about

IMITATION OF LIFE!!!!!!

Cover art for Imitation Of Life lyrics by Anthrax

It's about the music industry first and foremost, but it's also about fake persons, and about how money changes people - changes so much that they'd sell their mothers (or friends...)
