Lyrics

PERFECT LIFE


V1
Bills on the floor that won?t get paid
Wet through the wall and the carpet?s faded
A job that sucks and a man that?s gone
These days are cold these nights are long

CH
I was gonna live a perfect life
Gonna be a perfect wife
Gon? raise a perfect family
Make my daddy proud of me

Gonna make a dream come true
Gonna have a kid or two
Gon? raise a the perfect family
Make my mother cry for me

V2
Kids on the streets and a life that?s a bore
The people that I meet are worth ignoring
If I could get a break I?d buy a little place
Spend a lot of cash put powder on my face
Know what I mean

Repeat chorus

M8
I?m gonna go to a rich mans land
With a little self respect and an open hand
A smile and a laugh and a friendly shout
Then I?m in through the window when they go out

Back to friends that I knew from school
Kick up the place yeah act like fools
No one in face try to push me down
Yeah, I?m living for the day when this dream comes round

Repeat chorus

V3
I lived my life and made my choice
Maybe I should?ve listened to the voice in my mind
And the next man that?s tells me to give it a try
Can kiss my butt and wave it goodbye

Chorus to end
