Fake Plastic Trees Lyrics

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 plans
To get rid of itself

It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out

Oh, she looks like the real thing
And she tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love

But I can't fight the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
I just turn and run

It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out

And if I could be who you wanted
Wish I could be who you wanted
All the time
All the time

Oh, she lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns

And he used to do surgery
For the girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins

It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out

But she looks like the real thing
And she tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love

But I can't fight the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
I just turn and run

It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out

And if I could be who you wanted
Wish I could be who you wanted
All the time
All the time
All the time
