Song Lyrics

"Perfect Blues"

by Michael Roe
Album: It's For You (Second Set)

(You need to hear Dave on my side.)

Why don't you get up...get up next to me'
Why don't you get up...get up next to me'
Well, you get up close enough to me, baby, you won't like what you see.

Why don't you hang-around...hang-around around me'
Come on, hang out, honey, honey-bunny, hang out with me,
Well, sooner or later you'll get sick of me, mama - sick of me, I guarantee.

Filled up with gas, lights might glow,
Wind me up, but I'll never ever go,
No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
I won't go, no,
I only got one gear, that's reverse, baby,
I'm in the fast lane, moving slow, yeah, yeah.

You can break me, you can shake me, you won't change me - that I know,
Well, you can break it, you can break it, you can break it, you can shake it, you won't change me - that I know,
I'm only one bad apple, I've spoiled a whole bunch; I'm rotten...rotten to the core.

Take it, Davey, yeah.

Oh, keep on looking, baby, baby, baby, ain't gonna find what you're looking for,
Keep on looking, looking, looking, looking, looking,
Ain't gonna find what you're looking for,
Some kind of perfect man that you can worship, child - he ain't on this earth anymore, no more, no more, no more, no, no.

Oh, give it up,
Forget it, baby, it won't work,
Oh, give it up, up, up, up, up, up, up,
Forget it, babe, it won't work,
Well, you're looking for a perfect boy or girl; well, baby, we're all jerks,
That's right, yeah.

(Thankyou)
