Soulwax - Starfish & Coffee (Prince cover) lyrics

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)
