Testo Substitute - Ramones
Testo della canzone Substitute (Ramones), tratta dall'album Acid Eaters
You think we look pretty good together
You think my shoes 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 back dated, yeah
(Substitute) your lies for facts
(Substitute) I see right through your plastic mac
(Substitute) I look all white, but my dad was black
(Substitute) my brand new 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
At least, I'll get my washing done
Well, 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
At least, I'll get my washing done
(Substitute) your lies for facts
(Substitute) I see right through your plastic mac
(Substitute) I look all white, but my dad was black
(Substitute) my brand new suit's really made out of sack
