Perfect Girl

perfect girl
perfect girl
you know nobody ever
ever could tell her
what it's like to fall in love
she's tired of searchin
she wants to be perfect
nothing's ever good enough
and i watch i wait
catch her eye and look away
nobody ever, ever could tell her
but i tried

she keeps me hangin on the line
waitin outside,
beggin for the sex i need
she's the perfect girl
hangin by the phone
prayin all alone
waitin for the stone to bleed
she's the perfect girl

she wanted to want me
wanted to need me
wanted all those distant stars
wanted to be the surgeon
for the big operation
but she couldn't bare the scars
and she cut me well
but she wouldn't be cut herself
and nobody told me
i could be lonely
but i fell

she keeps me hangin on the line
waitin outside,
beggin for the sex i need
she's the perfect girl
hangin by the phone
prayin all alone
waitin for the stone to bleed
she's the perfect girl
she's the perfect girl

woah, i'm not perfect,
what's a girl to do
in a perfect world,
i'd be perfect too
and the longer that she makes me wait
the more my heart begins to break
but it's worth it when she comes
in the morning she'll be gone

and i'll be hangin on the line
waitin outside,
beggin for the sex i need
she's the perfect girl
hangin by the phone
prayin all alone
waitin for the stone to bleed
she's the perfect girl
she's the perfect girl
she's the perfect girl
she's the perfect girl
she's the perfect girl
