Counterfeit love
Don't try to pass it
Lend it or spend
It misrepresent it
Counterfeit love
I know you've got it
Cause I can spot
It counterfeit love
It is not love
They offer me
Just a reasonable
Facsimile
Hot of the press
One hour rolled
In the basement of your counterfeit soul
Counterfeit love
Don't try to pass it
Lend it or spend
It misrepresent it
Counterfeit love
I know you've got it
Cause I can spot
It counterfeit love

If a counterfeit coin
Or a counterfeit bill
Is proof enough
To send a man to jail
You should be booked for
Suspicion of
A bogus heart in a counterfeit love
Counterfeit love
Don't try to pass it
Lend it or spend
It misrepresent it
Counterfeit love
I know you've got it
Cause I can spot
It counterfeit love

I know the signs
And the earmarks of
Your kind of false
Oh counterfeit love
Two lips just made
To say goodbye
A restless smile and a wanderin' night
Counterfeit love
Don't try to pass it
Lend it or spend
It misrepresent it
Counterfeit love
I know you've got it
Cause I can spot
It counterfeit love
