Substitute my gloom with happiness Substitute my sickness with health Substitute my enemies with real good friends Morphine & chocolate are my substitute, substitutes Morphine & chocolate can bring me up Can warm my heart whenever I want it And every once in a while when I stop and think Morphine & chocolate are my substitute, substitutes And you can say "hey, we've really come a long way" And you can say "say, it can only be this way" But, you might be careful, it really, it really come a long way And you can say "hey, it can only be this way" But, you might be careful, it really hurts when it's real You might be careful, it really hurts when it's real You might be careful, it really hurts when it's real You'll go down, down, down, ooh Set the alarm clock, baby, Don't you miss the sun? I'm feeling really warm hearted baby Don't you know I'm feeling like someone I'm fearing for my heart Morphine & chocolate could never substitute my art! And that's real love baby And that's real love baby And that's real love baby
