Pete Townshend - Substitute 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 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-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 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 mum (Substitute) 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 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 mum (Substitute) At least I'll get my washin' 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-lookin' suit's really made out of sack |
