Testo Frankenstein Aimee Mann

Frankenstein

(I still have the shake in my voice
And Im going to sing you this song)

I dont know you from adam, it could make my day
If you leave me a message Ill give it away
cause the most perfect strangers that you can talk to
Are the ones who pretend that youre not really you

Are with any attempts here to play frankenstein
Come with plenty of chances for changing your mind
When youre building your own creation
Nothings better than real than a real
Imitation

I wont find it fantastic or think it absurd
When the gun in the first act goes off in the third
cause its rare that you ever know what to expect
From a guy made of corpses with bolts in his neck

If the creature is limping the parts are in place
With a mind of its own and a fist for a face
Say hello to your new creation
Now its better than real
Its a real imitation

You may wonder what the catch is
As we batten down the hatches

And when later we find that the thing we devised
Has the villagers clamouring for its demise
We will have to admit the futility of
Trying to make something more of this jerry-built love

And youll notice it bears a resemblance to
Everything I imagined I wanted from you
But at least its my own creation
And its better than real
Its a real imitation
