Lyrics Per Gessle – Substitute (For The Real Deal)
Text:
She says what?
She doesn’t like your new haircut?
Way too long in the back? — its all right!
She comes and goes
She doesn’t like your faded clothes
Hey you’re sleazier than most but it’s all right!
She can still change her mind
And stay the night
Stay the night
Hey you’re sleazier than most but it’s all right!
She can still change her mind
And stay the night
Stay the night
You’re a substitute for the real deal
A substitute for the real deal
That she wants so bad
She wants so bad
She says so
She doesn’t like your rock ‘n’ roll
‘Cause it makes her feel old but it’s all right
She comes and goes
She doesn’t like your fading clothes
You look cheaper than most but it’s all right!
She can still change her mind
And stay the night
Stay the night
You’re a substitute for the real deal
A substitute for the real deal
That she wants so bad
She wants so bad
You killed an elephant to find an ant
You made a point that came and went
You’re a substitute for the real deal
Such a substitute for the real deal
