The Great White - Substitute lyrics

You think we look pretty good together? You think my jeans 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 Substitute, your lies for fact Substitute, I see right through that Satan crap Substitute, I look all white but my dad was black Substitute, my fine looking suit's really made out of sack I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth The north side of my town faced east and east was facing south But now you dare to look me in the eye Those are crocodile tears that you cry A genuine problem you won't try To work it out at all, just pa** it by, pa** 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 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 I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth The north side of my town faced east and east was facing south But now you dare to look me in the eye Those are crocodile tears that you cry A genuine problem you won't try To work it out at all, just pa** it by, pa** it by Substitute, your lies for fact Substitute, I see right through that Satan crap Substitute, I look all white but my dad was black Substitute, my fine looking suit's really made out of sack Substitute, me for him Substitute, my coke for gin Substitute, you for my mom Substitute, at least I'll get my washing done
