I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I can do The Devil in my sleep All day waiting for my midnight creep If you love me, don't expect a lot I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I can steal your heart on you Hide it in my walking shoes Leave before the band gets hot I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I do better, I do better On my own Like a sick dog, like a sick dog Ain't got no home Unto thine image made But on that day the mold was broken I'm afraid I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God Cobras coming outta my eyes Land of a thousand dances and the chances Sharkskin will materialize I'm a poor imitation of God But there ain't nobody else Can't you see girl, I'm trying to love ya But I can't even love myself I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God I'm a poor imitation of God
