It was 7:45, we were all in line to greet the teacher, Ms. Kathleen...
First was Keven, then came Lucy, third in line was me!
All of us were ordinary, compared to Cynthia Rose. She always stood in 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 and coffee, maple syrup and jam, butterscotch clouds and a tangerine, with a side order of ham!If you'd set your mind free baby, maybe you'd understand: Starfish and coffee, maple syrup and jam...
Cynthia wore a happy face, just like the one she'd draw, on every wall, in every school, but it's all right Cynthia, it's for a worthy cause! Starfish and coffee, maple syrup and jam, butterscotch clouds and a tangerine, with a side order of ham ...
Well the city grows, and a rocket blows, but everybody still wants to fly... Some say a main ain't happy truly, until a man truly dies, oh why? Sign o' the Times.
~ Prince Rogers Nelson
