Her green plastic watering can
For her 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 surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins
It wears him out, it wears him out
It wears him out, it wears him out
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
It wears me out, it wears me out
It wears me out, it wears me out
If I could be who 你 wanted
If I could be who 你 wanted all the time
All the time...
All the time...

How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
你 reel me out then 你 cut the string
How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
I won't take my eyes off the ball again
First 你 reel me out and then 你 cut the string
你 used to be alright
What happened?
Did the cat get your tongue?
Did your string come undone?
One 由 one
One 由 one
It comes to us all
It's as soft as your pillow
你 used to be alright
What happened
Et cetera, et cetera
Fads for whatever
Fifteen steps
Then a sheer drop
How come I end up where I started?
How can I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
你 reel me out and 你 cut the string
