Fake Like Plastic Lyrics

Best friend I can't relate to, no I don't hate you but where are you Changed your number 3 times and that's ok but drop me a line Friends of friends have made ammends so where are you Best friend lit the wick when I was burning candles at both ends And you won't come through just like you never do and I can't find you when I need you, Your fake and see through just like plastic. I gave you cash , I fixed your car , saw your girlfriend in a bar and she said "you don't do much of anything anymore" Best Friend Where are you.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Written originally for use in the band Pencey Prep, Sabatino took the song along with him to Fairmont in August 2001. The song is about old friends who lost touch and didn't really care to get back in touch. The song was recorded 3 times by Fairmont and appeared on Fairmont's first album as an acoustic track, Fairmont's 1st EP as a heavy rock track and then again on Anomie Fairmont's 2nd album as a jangly indie song.
