Fake Plastic Trees - Radiohead

The speaker feels emotionally drained ("it wears me out") by a woman who seems artificial ("fake plastic love"). She buys fake plants and decorates with plastic items. The woman lives with a man who used to be a surgeon but is now broken down, like the cracked plastic man he resembles. Both the plastic surroundings and the broken relationships take their toll on the speaker.
