Substitute |
| You think we look pretty good together |
| You think my shoes are made of leather |
| But I’m a substitute for another guy |
| I look pretty tall but my heels are high |
| The simple things you see are all complicated |
| I look pretty young, but I’m just back-dated, Yeah |
| Substitute your lies for fact |
| (Substitute) I can see right through your plastic mac |
| (Substitute) I look all white, but my dad was black |
| (Substitute) my fine looking suit is really made out of sack |
| I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth |
| The north side of my town faced east, and the east faces south |
| And now you dare to look me in the eye |
| Those crocodile tears are what you cry |
| It’s a genuine problem that you won’t try |
| To work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by |
| Substitute me for him |
| (Substitute) my coke for gin |
| (Substitute) you for my mum |
| (Substitute) at least I’ll get my washing done |
| But I’m a substitute for another guy |
| I look pretty tall but my heels are high |
| The simple things you see are all complicated |
| I look pretty young, but I’m just back-dated, yeah |
| I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth |
| The north side of my town faced east, And the east faces south |
| And now you dare to look me in the eye |
| Those crocodile tears are what you cry |
| It’s a genuine problem, you won’t try |
| To work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by |
| Substitute your lies for fact |
| (Substitute) I can see right through your plastic mac |
| (Substitute) I look all white, but my dad was black |
| (Substitute) my fine looking suit is really made out of sack |
| Substitute me for him |
| (Substitute) my coke for gin |
| (Substitute) you for my mum |
| (Substitute) at least I’ll get my washing done |
