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 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 oughta 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 The good and bad comes through Don't want you 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 Cuz I do the best imitation of myself Yes it's uncanny to see You'd really think it was me I do the best imitation of myself, The best imitation of myself
