Fakin’ It Lyrics By Simon Garfunkel

    when she goes she’s gone
    if she stays she stays here
    the girl does what she wants to do
    she knows what she wants to do
    and i know i’m fakin’ it
    i’m not really makin’ it

    i’m such a dubious soul
    and a walk in the garden
    wears me down
    tangled in the fallen vines
    picking up the punch lines
    i’ve just been fakin’ it
    not really makin’ it

    is there any danger
    no no not really
    just lean on me
    taking time to treat
    your friendly neighbors honestly
    i’ve just been fakin’ it fakin’ it
    not really makin’ it
    this feeling of fakin’ it
    i still haven’t shaken it

    prior to this lifetime
    i surely was a tailor look at me
    good morning mr leitch
    have you had a busy day
    i own the tailor’s face and hands
    i am the tailor’s face and hands
    i know i’m fakin’ it fakin’ it
    i’m not really makin’ it
    this feeling of fakin’ it
    i still haven’t shaken it shaken it
    i know i’m fakin’ it
    i’m not really makin’ it
