[Will Wood and the Tapeworms - Mr. Capgras Live lyrics]
You’re trying to replace yourself
You’re trying to replace yourself
You’re trying to replace yourself
You’re trying to replace yourself
You’re trying to replace yourself
You’re trying to replace yourself, you’re
(trying to replace yourself)
Carving out a fact from a reckoning
Beckoning you back
Skin sagging of it's skeleton
Levitating off the ground
Is another man wearing your face
All the other false identities
Remedies or enemies to mitigate your memories
Shuddered at what they found
When they stripped away the grace
Eulogy or biography
I’m who I oughta be, and that is God to me
(Never, never, never)
So, my God, what’s wrong with me?
If who I wanna be might be
Never, never, never never, never, never
Never, never, never no, never
You’ll never take me alive, baby
You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me, you’ll never take me
You better pray that I die
You’ll never take me alive, baby
You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me, you’ll never
Take me, and no, you’re never gon’ find
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Damn, I thought you’re not your impostor
You’re so sure you’re not gonna get caught
Dead in your own skin
But you didn’t choose what you were born in
And another man in your repertoire
Ready in your head and fed upon your memoirs
Still the same rules apply
From the birthday to the mourning
What you feel and what you do
Are those things really you? And if not
Then what is? (Never, never, never)
So, my god, what’s wrong with you?
And I’m still asking who that is
Never, never, never never, never, never
Never, never, never no, never
You’ll never take me alive, baby
You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me, you’ll never take me
You better pray that I die
You’ll never take me alive, baby
You’ll never take me alive
You’ll never take me, you’ll never
Take me, and no, you’re never gon’ find
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
"Fucking hurt each other! Come on!"
You’ll never take me alive, baby
You’ll never take me alive
(This is not enough
This is not enough to prove it yet)
You’ll never take me, you’ll never take me
You better pray that I die
(No, I need to hit the bottom)
You’ll never take me alive, baby
You’ll never take me alive
(This is not enough
This is not enough to prove it yet)
You’ll never take me, you’ll never take me
You’ll never take me, you’ll never take me
Whoa (No, I need to hit the bottom)
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
Somebody to replace yourself
