MARINA - Perfect-Oh lyrics
[MARINA - Perfect-Oh lyrics]
I drop onto my bed and the dust jumps up
Too sad to turn my head
'cause my heart's full up
She's stayin' at your home
She's sleeping in your bed
I can't let you consider that
You just don't care
Every morning I wake up and
I smoke a fine cigar
A habit I acquired in Barcelona
Expectations are bliss when I'm
Given up to you oh, I'm a perfectionist
I was hoping you were too
(Perfectionist) Uh oh (Perfectionist) Too
Uh oh, perfection well perhaps this is why I
Could not say goodbye
Cause these rules I'm living by
Don't apply to real life
Tell me how am I meant to keep my cheeks dry
Without pissing you off with that one word
One word
"Why, why, why", uh oh why, uh oh, why
Can't say these things to you so
I have to sing 'em live when I spit
You get so angry so I'll take you by surprise
Oh Mr and Mrs perfect
Together they cannot be!
And that's a thing you had to deal
With when you fell in love
With me, uh oh me, uh uh oh
Me, uh uh, oh oh oh, uh oh oh
You left me for a quick fix but
You crawled back to your cot
Thank fuck you didn't harm the spark in me
I know it's all I've got
And I know that it sounds cliché but
I know that it is true
Oh, you rely on myself, I can't rely on
You, uh oh you, uh oh
You
You treat me like a trinket
Keep me in a special box
I'm not no polite treasure in
The chest that time forgot
Oh, you keep me in the dark, shining
Make me feel so bad
I feel you only loved me when you
Realized that I was all you ever
Had, uh oh p-p-p-perfect oh
Had, uh oh, oh had, uh oh, oh
Perfect oh perfect oh
Too sad to turn my head
'cause my heart's full up
She's stayin' at your home
She's sleeping in your bed
I can't let you consider that
You just don't care
Every morning I wake up and
I smoke a fine cigar
A habit I acquired in Barcelona
Expectations are bliss when I'm
Given up to you oh, I'm a perfectionist
I was hoping you were too
(Perfectionist) Uh oh (Perfectionist) Too
Uh oh, perfection well perhaps this is why I
Could not say goodbye
Cause these rules I'm living by
Don't apply to real life
Tell me how am I meant to keep my cheeks dry
Without pissing you off with that one word
One word
"Why, why, why", uh oh why, uh oh, why
Can't say these things to you so
I have to sing 'em live when I spit
You get so angry so I'll take you by surprise
Oh Mr and Mrs perfect
Together they cannot be!
And that's a thing you had to deal

With me, uh oh me, uh uh oh
Me, uh uh, oh oh oh, uh oh oh
