"Starfish And Coffee" Lyrics

It was 7:45 we were all in line
To greet the teacher Miss Kathleen
First was Kevin, then came Lucy, third in line was me
All of us were 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 you asked her what she had for breakfast
This is what she'd say

Starfish & Coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
A side order of ham
If you'd set your mind free baby
Maybe you'd understand
Starfish & Coffee
Maple syrup and jam

Cynthia wore the prettiest dress with different colored socks
Sometimes, I wondered if the mates were in her lunchbox
Lucy and I opened it when Cynthia wasn't around
Lucy cried, I almost died
You know what we found?

Starfish & Coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
And a side order of ham
If you'd set your mind free baby
Maybe you'd understand
Starfish & Coffee
Maple syrup and jam oh - oh
(Starfish & Coffee)

Cynthia had a happy face
Just like the one she'd draw
On every wall, OF every school but it's alright
It's for a worthy cause
Go on Cynthia!
Keep singing!

LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA

Starfish & Coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
A side order of ham
If you'd set your mind free baby
Maybe you'dl understand
Starfish & Coffee
Maple syrup and jam.
