Lyrics

Her green plas tic wa ter ing can

for her fake Chi nese rub (C#m)ber plant

in fake plas bles

tic (Dsus2)earth

that she bought from a rub ber (Asus)man

in a town full of rub (C#m)ber plans

but grav to get rid

of it self.

(A)It wears (A)her out,

it wears her out,

it wears her out,

it wears her out.

She lives with a bro ken ing can

for a cracked pol y sty (C#m)rene man

who just crum bles

and (Dsus2)burns.

that He used to do sur ger (Asus)y

in for girls in the eight (C#m)ber ies,

but grav i ty al

of it ways

(A)It wears (A)him out,

it wears him out,

it wears him out,

it wears her out.

it wears...

She looks like the real

(Asus)thing,

she tastes like the real

thing,

my fake plas

tic love.

But I can’t help the feel

ing

I could blow through the ceil

ing

if I just turn

and (Dsus2)run.

And it wears me out,

it wears me out,

it wears me out,

it wears

me out.

And if I could be

who you want ed,

if I could be

(Asus)who you want (A)ed

(C#m)all

the time,

all

the time,

ah, (A)ah,

ah.
