Lyrics
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 facts I see right through your plastic mac I look all white but my dad was black My brand new suit's 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 was facing 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, just pass it by, pass it by
Substitute me for him Substitute my coke for gin Substitute you for my mum At least I'll get my washing done
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 was facing 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, just pass it by, pass it by
Substitute me for him Substitute my coke for gin Substitute you for my mum At least I'll get my washing done
Substitute your lies for facts I see right through your plastic mac I look all white but my dad was black My brand new suit's really made out of sack
