I drop onto my bed
And the dust jumps up
To 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
Oh, oh, yeah
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
