Fake '88 - Alexander O'Neal

Your name was Patty but now it’s Kay

Girl, you seem to change it everyday

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, yeah

In bed this morning you called me Clyde

Alex is the name that I go by, oh

If women could be counterfeit

Then you’d be it

You’re a fake, baby, you can’t conceal it

Know how I know 'cause I can feel it

You’re a fake, baby, I’ve blown your cover

The jig 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

(Whenever I go out with you)

I find out something new

You’re a fake, you always have a good excuse

(You always have a good excuse)

But, girl that ain’t no use

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’re a fake, baby

Fake
