imagine

imagine being sleeping beauty,

just to sleep would be your duty,

surrounded by roses one hundred years,

until a man comes lacking all fears.

he kisses you to give it a try,

let’s hope, he is a handsome guy!

 

imagine being the great Houdini,

more powerful than lovely Jeannie,

master of illusions and magic,

with tricks exciting, famous, tragic,

and if you fail – don’t worry, man,

the people think it is your plan.

 

imagine being siegfried the hero,

famous just like robert de niro,

a brave and cute and gorgeous knight,

you even won the dragon’s fight.

murder will be the end of your life,

being betrayed by your stupid wife.

 

imagine being superman,

saving the world as much as you can,

sensing danger wherever you are,

sometimes near and sometimes far.

i have to tell you what is true:

cape and tights look silly on you!

 

imagine being mrs. monroe,

beautiful lady, head to toe,

some like it hot and so do you,

more often you feel sad and blue.

happy birthday, mr. president,

nobody’s perfect in the end.

 

imagine being elvis, the king,

girls go crazy when you sing,

you’re in disguise in the ghetto for real,

love me tender with your sexappeal,

oh, I like your voice and hair

just wanna be your teddy bear.

 

 

 

imagine being rudolf  nurejew,

the one and only ballet dance chef,

blessed with an enormous gift,

loving every swan you lift.

a man so strong and oh so tall,

but man in tights, we can see all.

 

imagine being a little hobbit,

finding a ring and finally drop it,

not aware what it’s really worth,

walking miles through middle earth.

sometimes in trouble and pain, but hey:

have faith in gandalf – white or grey!

 

imagine being yourself  today

what would you look like: can you say?
