Her green plastic watering-can for

fake Chinese rubber plant

In the fake plastic earth

That she bought from a rubber man

In a town full of rubber plants to get rid of itself

It wears her out

She lives with a broken man,

A cracked polystyrene man who just

crumbles and burns

He used to do surgery for girls in the eighties

But gravity always wins and it wears it out

She looks like the real thing

She tastes like the real thing

My fake plastic tree

But I can't help the feeling

I could blow through the ceiling

If I just turn around and run,

it wears me out

If I could be who you wanted all the time
