SUBSTITUTE

Intro : D A G A x2 D (16 beats)

Verse 1:

You think we look pretty good together

You think my shoes are made of leather

Prechorus 1:

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 backdated yeah

Chorus 1:

Subsitute your lies for fact

I see right through your plastic Mac

I look all white but my dad was black

My fine looking suit's really made out of sack

Break of 8 beats

Verse 2:

I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth

The north side of my town faced east and the east was facin' south

Prechorus 2:

And now you dare to look me in the eye

Those crocodile tears will watch you cry

It's a genuine problem you won't try

To work it on the toll just passin by passin by

Chorus 2:

Substitute me for him

Substitute my coke for gin

Substitute you for my mum

At least I'll get my washin' done

Then for the solo play the verse a few times

Prechorus 1:

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 backdated yeah
