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 see right through your plastic mac (substitute)
 I look all white, but my dad was black (substitute)
 My fine-lookin' suit is really made out of sack (substitute)
 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 you just pass it by, pass it by
 Substitute me for him (substitute)
 Substitute my coke for gin (substitute)
 Substitute you for my mum (substitute)
 At least I'll get my washing done (substitute)
