Substitute

Ooh baby, baby
Ooh the way you need that lady
Ooh you've got it bad (You've really got it bad)
And the way she treats you, baby
Makes me mad, makes me mad

Yeah, the way she takes you in
It makes me want to cry (She's always telling lies)
Outside I'm only looking in
My hands are tied, oh, what am I?

I'm a substitute who loves you baby
A fool who hangs around (around)
Oh, I'm a substitute, I'm going crazy
Watching her bringing you down

Shame!
Three's a crowd

Ooh, if she appreciated you
I'd step aside (Why don't you realise?)
Yeah, it's not as if she's even satisfied, satisfied

Shame!
Three's a crowd
Shamе!
Three's a crowd
I'll tell you now

I'm a substitute who loves you baby
A fool who hangs around (Around)
Oh, I'm a substitutе, I'm going crazy
Watching her bringing you down

She's the main attraction
Ooh, I've got direction
But no connection
She gets all the action
Ooh and boy, she knows it
How could se do that thing to me?
She's the main attraction
Ooh, determination, I won't be shaken
She gets all the action
Yeah, that's why a fire
Is buring up inside of me

I'm a substitute who loves you baby
A fool who hangs around (Around)
Oh, I'm a substitute, I'm going crazy
Watching her bringing you down
I'm a substitute who loves you baby
A fool who hangs around (Around)
Oh, I'm a substitute, I'm going crazy
Watching her bringing you down
Brings me down, yeah
I'm a substitute who loves you baby
A fool who hangs around (Around)
Oh, I'm a substitute...
