"Substitute" was a cover version of an obscure Righteous Brothers song, composed by Willie Wilson. Clout's version reached number two in the UK singles chart for three weeks in June 1978, and number one in New Zealand, Australia, Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and South Africa. It only reached number sixty-seven in the U.S. for one week in September 1978, but stayed in the Billboard chart for ten weeks altogether. "Substitute" was then recorded by Gloria Gaynor for single release in the U.S., but radio and club DJs preferred the B-side which became the worldwide hit: "I Will Survive".

Something More
Clout Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something more
Your undeceive bigger
Don't tell me what to do
Don't hate my television
Don't bag the things I do
Your such a drama queen
I dig I'm getting pretty
Cos I wanna love my best
Whatchu think is so not you
Well guess that comes from you
If you wanna be my lover you've got to know
If you wanna stay then show
Show me that you love and understand me
If you wanna be the one to get past my door
Better give me something more
Better give me something
Something
Something more
Don't diss my taste in music
I think that stars are best
Don't play that ranges squirming
Just give my head a rest
I like this chick flick movies
You laugh while I describe
You so insensitive
But you provocative
What you did you shouldn't have done
Cos that's not the way it goes
If you wanna be my lover you've got to know (You've got to know)
If you wanna stay then show (You got to show)
Show me that you love and understand me
If you wanna be the one to get past my door (Get past my door)
Better give me something more (Something more)
Better give me something (Something)
Something (Something)
Something more
Something more (Well give it)
Something real (I can see)
Something sweet (I can do with)
Something more
You pick fights with my best friends
You complain about everything
If you wanna be my lover you've got to know
If you wanna stay then show (Show me baby)
Show me that you love and understand me
If you wanna be the one to get past my door (Get past my door)
Better give me something more
Better give me something
Something (Something more)
If you wanna be my lover you've got to know (You've got to know it baby)
If you wanna stay then show (You've got to show it baby)
Show me that you love and understand me (Love and understand me)
If you wanna be the one to get past my door
Better give me something more
Better give me something
Something
Something more
If you wanna be my lover you've got to know
If you wanna stay then show
Show me that you love and understand me
If you wanna be the one to get past my door (Get past my door)
Better give me something more (Something more)
Better give me something (Something)
Something
Something more
If you wanna be my lover you've got to know
If you wanna stay then show
Show me that you love and understand me
