Sorry about what came before
I'm just working something out
Never one to miss a trick
Or a chance to mess about
Oh it's so hard to be a liar
Looking the likes of you in the face
'You make me happy yes you do
You're impossible to replace'
You can't admit it, but you're a mannequin just like me
A double intender, a mask on a mask on a mask on a mask, no anxiety
Born from plastic in a mould
Too little sugar, too much spice
A soul so wayward it awakes
When you try to veto vice
A heart so candid it creates
New truths each day to pay the price
I'm like a dog tied to a stick leaping for balls I cannot reach
I'm like a fool who runs and runs in lakes of fire to scratch an itch
And I'm so plastic and you're so plastic
And I'm so fake and you're so fake
And I'm so plastic and you're so plastic
And I'm so fake and you're so fake
