James - If Things Were Perfect lyrics

[James - If Things Were Perfect lyrics]

On a machine like this
Everybody gets their hands oily
Smoke filled room nobody's lungs stay clean
But there's a difference between
A swim and a wallow gives out a clue to how
Things might have been
If things were perfect

Ask for perfection
P-p-p-people aren't like that
Any fool can see who are you to laugh at me?
I am still standing on the chicken wire
Daren't look down
But try and inch a little higher
Friends on the ground
Say "come on it, the water's fine"
But I can see their frozen smiles from here
When you give give give yourself to something
Is there anything left you can call your own
If I give give give give my body to someone
Can I keep keep keep a part for me


Oh keep a part for me
Oh leave some piece that's free
I'll do anything to please you
I'll do anything to please you
But take me take me please
I'm asking, but I'm down on my knees
You're warm, a home, a place to hide
You're warm, a home, a place to hide
You're warm, a home, a place to hide
A place to hide

Pity, pity me pity, pity me
You might laugh ha ha ha
When it doesn't affect you
While I cry oh oh oh for all to see
Come on and laugh ha ha ha
When it doesn't affect you

While I cry stop stop stop stop
Stop stop stop stop stop stop stop
Stop!
