Young World
Looking for a woman for the night, gonna shoot my load
Rocking and rolling on the mainspring, feeling a smile flash by
Roll her to the left, roll her to the right, get high tonight
Bright lights
Running faster than you
Bright lights
How does it feel to be through?
Fancy 5 a.m. the sun is in the trees again
Coming back to hit the town, gonna kick the hammer down
Speaking in my head, waking up in bed, sweating, shaking with fright
Roll her to the left, roll her to the right tonight
Substitute
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 your lies for fact
I can see right through your plastic mac
I look all white, but my dad was black
My fine linen suit is really made out of sack
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 me for him
Substitute my coke for gin
Substitute you for my mum
At least I'll get my washing done
