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
And she's sleeping in your bed
I can't bear to 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 placed
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
Poor Mister and Misses 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

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)
