Fake Plastic Trees
Lyrics
Her green plastic watering can For her fake Chinese rubber plant In the fake plastic earth ♪ That she bought from a rubber man In a town full of rubber plans To get rid of itself ♪ It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out ♪ She lives with a broken man A cracked polystyrene man Who just crumbles and burns ♪ He used to do surgery For girls in the eighties But gravity always wins ♪ And it wears him out ♪ It wears him out It wears him out It wears ♪ She looks like the real thing She tastes like the real thing My fake plastic love ♪ But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling If I just turn and run ♪ And it wears me out ♪ It wears me out ♪ It wears me out It wears me out And if I could be who you wanted If I could be who you wanted All the time All the time Her green plastic watering can For her fake Chinese rubber plant In the fake plastic earth ♪ That she bought from a rubber man In a town full of rubber plans To get rid of itself ♪ It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out ♪ She lives with a broken man A cracked polystyrene man Who just crumbles and burns ♪ He used to do surgery For girls in the eighties But gravity always wins ♪ And it wears him out ♪ It wears him out It wears him out It wears ♪ She looks like the real thing She tastes like the real thing My fake plastic love ♪ But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling If I just turn and run ♪ And it wears me out ♪ It wears me out ♪ It wears me out It wears me out And if I could be who you wanted If I could be who you wanted All the time All the time Her green plastic watering can For her fake Chinese rubber plant In the fake plastic earth ♪ That she bought from a rubber man In a town full of rubber plans To get rid of itself ♪ It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out ♪ She lives with a broken man A cracked polystyrene man Who just crumbles and burns ♪ He used to do surgery For girls in the eighties But gravity always wins ♪ And it wears him out ♪ It wears him out It wears him out It wears ♪ She looks like the real thing She tastes like the real thing My fake plastic love ♪ But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling If I just turn and run ♪ And it wears me out ♪ It wears me out ♪ It wears me out It wears me out And if I could be who you wanted If I could be who you wanted All the time All the time Her green plastic watering can For her fake Chinese rubber plant In the fake plastic earth ♪ That she bought from a rubber man In a town full of rubber plans To get rid of itself ♪ It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out ♪ She lives with a broken man A cracked polystyrene man Who just crumbles and burns ♪ He used to do surgery For girls in the eighties But gravity always wins ♪ And it wears him out ♪ It wears him out It wears him out It wears ♪ She looks like the real thing She tastes like the real thing My fake plastic love ♪ But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling If I just turn and run ♪ And it wears me out ♪ It wears me out ♪ It wears me out It wears me out And if I could be who you wanted If I could be who you wanted All the time All the time
