That got it so wrong
When it's electronically reprocessed
Bikini clad girl on the front who invited you in
Such great disappointment when you got him home
To give a more life like effect
Like the last days of southfork, ohh
I heard an old girlfriend has turned to the Church
(It's so hard to disconnect)
About all the sad imitations
When the two of them could've talk
(Ooo)
The original was so good no one you know longer know
And every time he kisses you
The second side of 'til the band comes in
Tom, come on
And every time he kisses you
And every touch reminds you
It's not easy to forget me
It leaves behind the bitter taste of saccharine
A bad cover version of love is not the real thing
'Cause every touch reminds you
(Electronically)
Of just how sweet it could have been
Like an known brand box of cornflakes
Of just how sweet it could have been
It's so hard to disconnect
Like 'Planet of the Apes' on TV
He's goin' to let you down my friend
(It's not easy to forget me)
You get the taste of saccharine
Like the stones since the eighties
She's tryin' to replace me but it'll never work
Aah, sing your song
It's like a late Tom and Jerry
