 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 eight  - ies
  But gravity always  wins
 
 And it wears him out It wears him out
  And it wears him out  It we-ear  - err - ers
 
 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 ceil  - ing
  If I just  turn and  run
 
 And it wears me out It wears me out
  It wears me out  It wear - err - ers  me out
 
 And if I could be who you wanted
  If I could be  who you wanted
  All  the time All  the time
  mmmm mmmm mmmm
