Substitute - Single Version

Lyrics

You think we look pretty good together
 You think my shoes are made of leather
 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 bloody young, but I'm just back dated, yeah
 Substitute your lies for fact
 (Substitute) I see right through your plastic mac
 (Substitute) I try walking forward but my feet walk back
 (Substitute) my brand new suit is always made out of sack
 Plastic spoon in my mouth
 The north side of my town faced east, and the east was facing south
 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) my coke for gin
 (Substitute) you for my mom
 (Substitute) at least I'll get my washing done
 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 looking suit is really made out of sack
