Fake Plastic Trees

Her green plastic watering can

For her fake chinese rubber plant

In fake plastic earth.

That she bought from a rubber man

In a town full of rubber plants

Just to get rid of itself.

And it wears her out, it wears her out

It wears her out, it wears her out.



She lives with a broken man

A cracked polystyrene man

Who just crumbles and burns.

He used to do surgery

For girls in the eighties

But gravity always wins.

And it wears him out, it wears him out

It wears him out, it wears him out.



She looks like the real thing

She tastes like the real thing

My fake plastic love.

But i can't help the feeling

I could blow through the ceiling

If i just turn and run

And it wears me out, it wears me out

It wears me out, it wears me out.



And if i could be who you wanted

If i could be who you wanted,

All the time, all the time, ohhh... ohh...
