Lyrics
Plastic people
You gotta go
Plastic people
You gotta go
Three nights and days
I walk the streets
This town is full
Of plastic creeps
Their shoes are brown
To match their suits
They got no balls
They got no roots
Because they're plastic people
You gotta go (Sure gonna miss ya)
Plastic people
You gotta go
