Background[]

Imitation is the highest form of flattery...right?
—CircusP

"Copycat" is an original melodic techno genre song by CircusP, featuring GUMI V3 English.

A popular theory is that it seems to be about a person having problems with their identity, whose point of view is portrayed by GUMI. In GUMI's mirror, the silhouettes of other VOCALOIDs (Miku, MEIKO, Rin, Luka) are reflected and GUMI's facial expressions change according to them. However, when it shows GUMI's own silhouette, GUMI's face is blank, implying that she only copies the personalities of others and lacks one of herself. She may be doing this because she thinks that her significant other likes other people and tries to "mirror" them so her significant other will like her more. CircusP stated that while the information may not be official, the meaning is up to interpretation.[1] The song is connected to Can't Stand You despite not being a prequel.

Lyrics[]

Say, "Hello,
Who are you?"
And we'll start
from scratch again
"Gotta go,
Talk to you soon!"
Day by day, I'm fading away

We get along just fine
I say everything you like to hear
"It's funny how much I
Feel like I'm looking in a mirror"

I can't remember...
Who I am...
Everything's a blur...
Take me over...

I'LL BECOME WHAT YOU LIKE
THIS IS WHAT YOU'VE WANTED,
RIGHT!?
SACRIFICE ALL I KNOW
I WILL TEACH MYSELF TO LET GO

Woah, woah
COPY THAT, COPYCAT
Woah, woah
COPY THAT, COPYCAT

Say "Hello,
what's up with you?"
I'm starting to
Talk like you do
Here we go
I'll be gone soon
Day by day,
Everything has changed

We've grown apart this time
I can't figure out the reason why
"It's funny how much I'd
Kinda like to see you cry."

I can't remember...
Who I am...
Everything's a blur...
Take me over

I'VE BECOME WHAT YOU LIKE
I AM WHAT YOU'VE WANTED,
RIGHT?!
SACRIFICED ALL I'VE KNOWN
I HAVE TAUGHT MYSELF TO LET GO

Woah, woah
COPY THAT, COPYCAT
Woah, woah
COPY THAT, COPYCAT
Woah, woah
COPY THAT, COPYCAT
Woah, woah
COPY THAT, COPYCAT

I can't remember
who I am
everything's a blur
take me over

I'll become what you like
this is what you've wanted...right?
sacrifice all I know
I will teach myself to let go

(WHOA...)
COPY THAT, COPYCAT
(WHOA...)
COPY THAT, COPYCAT
(WHOA...)
COPY THAT, COPYCAT
(WHOA...)
COPY THAT, COPYCAT
(WHOA...)
