Imposter

IMPOSTER

I'm the imposter, the emperor parading through the town square
Naked as a J-bird
Vying for the spotlight, even as I feel the rush of cold air
And no one says a word

I'm the one-night stand, up against the wall
I'll promise you I love you
But I'll never ever call

Liar, Loser, Phony
No one ever says so, but I know it's true
Poser, lightweight, cheapskate
The wanna be, the woe is me
Go ahead and drop the other shoe

It runs in the family, I come from a long line of pretenders
Naked just like me
Keeping up the pretense, dodging our reflection
So we don't see, what everyone else sees.

Liar, Loser, Phony
No one ever says so, but I know it's true
Poser, lightweight, cheapskate
The wanna be, the wait and see
Someone's gotta muster up the truth

Why am I the only one who's tired of pretend?
My very own best saboteur
Coming clean has such allure

Liar, Loser, Phony
No one ever says so, but I know it's true
Poser, lightweight, cheapskate
The wanna be, the woe is me
I don't want to wait and see

Liar loser phony,
No one ever says so, but I know it's true
Poser, lightweight, it's late
So I'm putting on my old cheap suit
I abdicate, my reign here is through

I'm the imposter, the emperor parading through the town square
Naked as a J-bird
