Perfect

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
