lyrics

I was scrolling down the road,
reading my fate,
when I saw your face, OK?
And I wanted to know you
if it wasn’t too late,
so I sent you a heart-felt "Hey!";

and the robot said you were fake!
A mystery man on the make.
So I paid a few credits
to some virtual guys
and got a magical pair of eyes.

It’s all fake plastic lies!
Every face I see is a cheap disguise.
I don’t know how I feel
but I know it’s not real
just fake plastic lies!

It’s all fake plastic lies!
Every bit of bait designed to entice.
I don’t know what I bought
but I got caught
by fake plastic lies!

So I asked around the net,
wanted to get
the reality of you,
for there had to be a woman
behind the mask.
What is a boy to do?

But the robot said you were fake.
A mystery man on the make.
So I paid a few credits
to some virtual guys
and got a magical pair of eyes.

It’s a false paradise;
every word is stupid while acting wise.
I don’t know why I looked
but I got hooked
by your eyes,
by your sighs,
by your fake plastic lies.
