Fake Plastic Trees (corregida)

Her green plastic wateringcan
For her fake chineserubberplant
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...
