Текст песне : Prince. One Nite Alone...Live!. Starfish And Coffee.

It was 7:45, we were all in line to 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 you asked her what she had for breakfast, this is what she'd say

Starfish and coffee, maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine and a side order o' ham
If you 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 lunch box
Me and Lucy opened it when Cynthia wasn't around
Lucy cried, I almost died, you know what we found

Starfish and coffee, maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine and a side order o' ham
If you set your mind free, baby, maybe you'd understand
Starfish and coffee, maple syrup and jam

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 for a worthy cause
Go on, Cynthia, keep singin'

Starfish and coffee, maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine and a side order o' ham
If you set your mind free, baby, maybe you'd understand
Starfish and coffee, maple syrup and jam
