Verse 1:
A green plastic watering can
For a fake Chinese rubber plant
In a fake plastic earth
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plants
To get rid of itself
Chorus 1:
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
It wears her out
Verse 2:
She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns
He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins
Chorus 2:
And it wears him out
It wears him out
It wears him out
It wears
Verse 3:
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
Chorus 3:
And it wears me out
It wears me out
It wears me out
It wears me out
Outro:
And if I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted
All the time
All the time
