Fake (Extended Version) - Alexander O'Neal

Your name was Patty

But now it's Kay

Girl, you seem to change it every day.

Your hair was long

But now it's short

You say, "I got it cut!"

But I don't see no hair upon the floor.

Whenever I go out with you

I find out something new.

You're a fake, baby

You can't conceal it

Know how I know?

'Cause I can feel it.

You're a fake, baby

No rhyme or reason

'Cause in your mind

It's lyin' season.

You had brown eyes

But now they're blue

Those false eyelashes that you're wearin', too.

In bed this morning

You called me CIyde

Alex is the name that I go by!

If women could be counterfeit

Then you'd be it.

You're a fake, baby

You can't conceal it

. . .

You're a fake, baby

I've blown your cover

The gig is up

'cause I discovered -

You're a fake, baby

no need to hide it

Can't change my mind

'Cause I've decided

You're a fake, baby

and I'm disgusted

The game is through

And, girl, you're busted

Fake!

Whenever I go out with you

I find out something new.

You're a fake

You always have a good excuse

But, girl, that ain't no use.

You're a fake, baby

You can't conceal it

. . .

You're a fake, baby

no rhyme or reason

. . .

You're a fake, baby

Fake!

Fake!
