[Instrumental Intro]
[イントロ]
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
僕たちは一緒にいるといい感じに見えるだろう 僕の靴は革でできていると思うだろう でも僕は他の奴の代わりなんだ 背は高く見えるが、ヒールが高いだけさ 君が見る単純なことは全て複雑なんだ 若く見えるけど、時代遅れなだけさ
(Substitute) Your lies for fact (Substitute) I see right through your plastic mac (Substitute) I look all White, but my dad was Black (Substitute) My fine-looking suit is really made out of sack
(代わりだ) 君の嘘が真実だと? (代わりだ) 君のビニール製マックコートの裏までお見通しだ (代わりだ) 白人に見えるが、父親は黒人だった (代わりだ) 見た目がいいスーツも実は粗末な麻袋でできている
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, just pass it by, pass it by
僕はプラスチックのスプーンを口にくわえて生まれた 町の北側は東を向いていて 東は南を向いていた そして今、君はあえて僕の目を見ようとする ワニの涙を流しているんだな それは真の問題なのに、君は解決しようとしない 全てをやり過ごそうとするだけだ、ただやり過ごすだけ
(Substitute) Me for him (Substitute) My coke for gin (Substitute) You for my mum (Substitute) At least I'll get my washing done
(代わりだ) 僕が彼の代わり (代わりだ) コーラの代わりにジン (代わりだ) 君が僕の母親の代わり (代わりだ) せめて洗濯だけは済ませよう
