Perfect Lyrics

Danny said he liked my smile and Johnny said he liked my waist

Danny wants to take me out and Johnny really, really, really wants a taste

Danny said he'd drive for miles just to take me out on a date

And Johnny wants me out of these dark blue jeans and he don't wanna wait

But there's just one problem with these harmless men

Honey, they aren't you and you ain't them, so

What's even the use in tryin'

Why'd you have to set the bar so high

Then leave me all alone and cryin'

Starting over is good and fine when you got

Cheated and lied to, scars to remind you

Honey, he's not worth it

But goddamn baby why'd you have to be so

Why'd you have to be so perfect

Perfect, perfect, yeah

Joey's got a set of them washboard abs and Harry's got a sense of humor

Peter's got one of them good old souls, aged like a baby boomer

And Terry's got a lot of money and Rob's got a PhD

But you had it all and then some honey and then there's me, so

What's even the use in tryin'

Why'd you have to set the bar so high

Then leave me all alone and cryin'

Starting over is good and fine when you got

Cheated and lied to, scars to remind you

Honey, he's not worth it

But goddamn baby why'd you have to be so

Why'd you have to be so perfect

Perfect, perfect

Why'd you have to be so perfect

Perfect, perfect

So these boys come and go and these boys stay and leave and I've got

Mixed cologne in my old cotton bed sheets

And I wish that I cared if they ever called

But I don't care, I don't care at all, so

What's even the use in tryin'

When you set the bar so high

Just to leave me all alone and cryin'

Starting over is good and fine when you got

Cheated and lied to, scars to remind you

Honey, he's not worth it

But goddamn baby why'd you have to be so

Why'd you have to be so perfect

Perfect, perfect

Why'd you have to be so perfect

Perfect, perfect

Oh why'd you have to be so

Why'd you have to be so

(Perfect, perfect, perfect)

Why'd you have to be so

(Perfect, perfect, perfect)

Why'd you have to be so perfect
