Mahalia - Plastic Plants
[Verse 1]
I wanna love you like in movies
A ticket for two, please
You could've been that man
If this was really showbiz, you would give me roses
And I would take your hand, ah
Hollywood made it look easy
Why'd it have to tease me?
I don't understand
I tried to love like in the movies
But, all I got was plastic plants
(All I got was plastic plants)
(All I got was plastic plants)
[Chorus]
I've got something inside me
That I wanna confess (Wanna confess)
You've been cutting your ties and
I don't wanna be next (Wanna be next)
I've (I've) got (Got) something inside me
That (That) I (I) wanna confess (Wanna confess)
If your roses are dead and your violets ain't true
I don't wanna grow next to you
[Verse 2]
I thought that our love would be a series
Always have you near me
Yeah, that was the plan
You were meant to call me on the daily
Link me like a daisy chain upon my hair
Hollywood made me think it was simple
I took it too literal
Now I understand, huh
I thought you were growing up
Thought we'd have a real romance, huh (Thought we would)
But all I got was plastic plants
