Fake Plastic Trees

Her green plastic watering can

For her fake chinese rubber plant

In the fake plastic earth

That she bought from a rubber man

In a town full of rubber plans

To get rid of itself.



It wears her out

It wears her out

It wears her out

It wears her out



She lives with a broken man,

A cracked polystyreneman

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...



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



If I could be who you wanted

If I could be who you wanted

All the time

All the time.
