Fake Plastic Trees

Her green plastic watering can
for a 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 polystyrene man
who just crumbles and burns

he used to do the surgery
for girls in the eighties
but gravity always wins

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
in my fake plastic...love

but I can't help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
if I just turn... and run

it wears me out...
it wears me out...
it wears me out...
and if I could be who you wanted
if I could be who you wanted
all the time
all the time
