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 lookin' 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 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 mom(Substitute)
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 mom(Substitute)
At least I'll get my washing done
