Lyrics The Temptations

The Temptations

Plastic Man

Well he specializes in talkin' trash

Carries himself like the world's biggest spender

But he ain't never got no cash

Clothes he wears are second to none

He's a Jack of all trades and a master of none

How are you doin'

Agrees with everything he knows nothin' about though, now

So he doesn't feel left out

Secondary all the things in life he really wants

Being in is his thing

So he's got to keep up his front

Tryin' to get over just anyway he can - can I tell you about it

Trvin' to get over just anyway he can

Can I tell you about it, can I tell you about it.

Let me tell you about it

There, there, there

Da da da da da da

Well he's a self preservationist, yes he is

Let me hear you say yeah. yeah, yeah

And a super conversationist, yes he is

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, talk to the people

Always borrows, never lends

He says, you know me man, I was here, let me in

Says he's willing to stick through thick and thin

But when the chips are down

People find him if you can

Plastic man

Clain to fame he has none

Friends in this world, he has now maybe one

He hates being just another face in the crowd

Giving another brother, five and talk in' loud

Plastic man

Tryin' to get over any way he can

Plastic man

Tryin' to get over any way he can

Plastic man
