Substitute
In the style of
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
backdated yeah
substitute
your lies for fact
i see right through
your plastic mac
i look all white
but my dad was black
my fine-looking suit
is really made
outta sack
i was born
with a plastic spoon
in my mouth
the north side of
my town faced east
and the east
was facin' 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 washin' 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
backdated yeah
i was born
with a plastic spoon
in my mouth
the north side of
my town faced east
and the east
was facin' 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 washin' done
substitute
your lies for fact
i see right through
your plastic mac
i look all white
but my dad was black
my fine-looking suit
is really
made outta sack
