Alanis Morissette › Lyrics › Perfect

Sometimes is never quite enough
If you're flawless then you'll win my love
Don't forget to win first place
Don't forget to keep that smile on your face

Be a good boy try a little harder
You've got to measure up make me prouder

How long before you screw it up
How many times do I have to tell you to hurry up
With everything I do for you
The least you can do is keep quiet

Be a good girl you've gotta try a little harder
That simply wasn't good enough to make us proud

I'll live for you, I'll make you what I never was
If you're the best then maybe so am I
Compared to him, compared to her
I'm doing this for your own damn good
You'll make up for what I blew
What's the problem, why are you crying?

Be a good boy push a little farther now
That wasn't fast enough to make us happy
We'll love you just the way you are if you're perfect
