Lyrics
This is paper thin
When he goes out on a limb
You’re always there for him
Your imaginary friend
He’s King Kong on Coca Cola
A drive-in-anywhere Casanova
He’s Superman, an astronaut
Your imaginary friend
The others taunt
They laugh
They point
People are so disappointing
Not your imaginary friend
So when those twenty guys
Flew into Paradise
He did not have to ask you twice
Your imaginary friend
You only speak when you are spoken to
It’s the way some friendships go
You’re under his control
Your imaginary friend
You laugh at all his jokes
So funny it nearly chokes you
You say you’ll be the death of me
My imaginary friend
With imaginary friends like these
Who needs imaginary enemies
Imagine there’s no future –
Its easy
With my imaginary friend
