Big House Lyrics
I don't know where you lay your head or where you call your home I don't know where you eat your meals or where you talk on the phone I don't know if you got a cook a butler or a maid I don't know if

You think we look pretty good together
You think my shoes are made of leather
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

(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

(Substitute) My coke for gin
(Substitute) You for my mum
(Substitute)
PUT ME DOWN Lyrics
Let me take you by the hand Away from here to another land Oh this land in which we live Where people love and are meant to forgive And you always prove me wrong 'cause you're always putting me down

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

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
Open Wide These Prison Doors Lyrics
Written by: Neil Diamond and Stewart Harris Tied by love to you, but I was tied too strong Still I'm afraid of knowing what leaving means I know I lived for you, and all I tried to do You were the keepe
problem, you won't try
To work it out at all, just pass it by...pass it by

(Substitute) Me for him
(Substitute) My coke for gin
(Substitute) You for my mum
(Substitute) At least I'll get my washin' done
(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-lookin' suit's really made out of sack
