Fake plastic trees



Her green plastic watering can
For her fake Chinese rubber plant
In the fake plastic earth
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber bands
To get rid of itself

It wears her out, it wears her out
It wears her out, 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

It wears him out, it wears him out
It wears him out, it wears

She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love
But I can't help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run

And it wears me out, it wears me out
It wears me out, it wears me out

If I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted all the time

All the time

All the time


Esta nova roupagem de Fake Plastic Trees, um original dos Radiohead, uma das músicas que em determinada altura da minha vida mais ouvi, feita por Scala & Kolacny Brothers, engrandece o original não o desvirtuando nem se limitando a uma reprodução ou simples cópia de plástico. Na verdade, não sei se será da época, mas fiquei com a sensação que este poderia ser uma grande música de Natal. Deve ser impressão minha.
