Rich Mystics - Substitute
In brown boots you asked me if I'd like to play inside
But I'll stay right here and watch the animals fight in the streets
When I'm in my vase it's easy to explain the hole I see
In all you slags You're so pretty but your nose just isn't clean
When the bottle's passed around I always poison true
But in the middle of a laugh I suddenly think of you
I'm trying hard to get you
In the back of my mind
I'm trying hard to get you
In the back of my mind, I just don't have the time
To walk again inside this cage and tomb
I'm loose
I pick up every substitute for you
Backwards there's a war between forward but that gets to be a bore
They come here in a line, with general compliments
And then I lie around too long like some dog that's overfed
By hanger ons and dealers left so fast, I can't recall a name
When the bottle's passed around I always poison true
But in the middle of a laugh I suddenly think of you
I'm trying hard to get you
In the back of my mind
I'm trying hard to get you
In the back of my mind, I just don't have the time
To walk again inside this cage and tomb
I'm loose
I pick up every substitute for you
You're not a substite
You're not my substitute
But I'll stay right here and watch the animals fight in the streets
