Substitute Video (MV)

You think we look pretty good together
You think my shoes are made of leather

But I'm a substitute for another guy
I look pretty tall but my heels are high
The simple things you see are all complicated
I look pretty young, but I'm just back-dated, yeah

(Substitute) me for him
(Substitute) my coke for gin
(Substitute) you for my mum
(Substitute) at least I'll get my washing done

I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
The north side of my town faced east, and the east was facing south
And now you dare to look me in the eye
Those crocodile tears are what you cry
It's a genuine problem, you won't try
To work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by

(Substitute) your lies for fact
(Substitute) I can see right through your plastic mac
(Substitute) I try walking forward, but my feet walk back
(Substitute) My fine-looking suit is really made out of sack

(Substitute) your lies for fact
(Substitute) I can see right through your plastic mac
(Substitute) I look real thin, but I want to be fat
(Substitute) My fine-looking suit is really made out of sack
