"Imaginary Friends" lyrics - NADA SURF

Hey, calling all imaginary friends!
Today, don't want no one to tell me how it ends
Took breathing for granted
And now I don't know how to breathe
Something that you planted
Just won't get up and leave

[Chorus:]

Lenny Bruce's bug eyes stare from an LP
Asking me just what kind
Of fight I got in me

Hey, I'm bewildered and writing myself notes
That say, "If you fake happiness then no one knows."
Convince yourself
And then you've got it made
There'll be no black of night
Just turned out lights

[Chorus:]

Lenny Bruce's bug eyes stare from an LP
Asking me just what kind
Of fight I got in me
I harbored some ambition
To turn it up like that
I already had roadblocks so
Why'd you have to cheat?

[Bridge:]

And now the sky looks like Turner
From specifics to the dawn
I've got so many back-burners
That keep on

Couldn't get their shit together
I laughed along, ha-ha
I almost wish you knew me better

[Outro:]
Hey, calling all imaginary friends!
Hey, calling all imaginary friends!
Hey, calling all imaginary friends!
Hey, calling all imaginary friends!
Hey, calling all imaginary friends!
Hey, calling all imaginary
