Perfect people

I’ve tried to compose after almost two months, how time has flown.
Anyway, I took some trouble here. This is supposed to be punk…don’t know if it’s turned out well enough.


Take a look in the mirror
You don’t like what it says,
And you’re always feeling ugly
Not like everybody else.
Saw a boy at the bakery
His eyes were shining blue,
And the girls next door’s a princess
So she doesn’t look at you.

Get up,
Get a clue
There’s more to life than high society,
Don’t give up
Too soon,
Don’t let your life just pass you quietly.

And everybody’s looking perfect
Girls pretty in pink and boys in blue, so cool,
They’ve all got different names yet they all look just the same,
But you don’t have to try so hard to be cool,
In a world of perfect people you’re still beautiful.

Your best friend is a winner
She’s always on the scene,
And she’s got all the boys
Soon she’ll be a beauty queen.
When you look in the mirror
You don’t like what you see,
But of all the pretty people
You’re still prettier to me.

Wake up,
You fool
There’s more to life than high society,
You’re not
A tool,
Just be yourself, no popstar wannabe.

And everybody’s looking perfect,
Girls pretty in pink and boys in blue, so cool
They’ve all got different names yet they all look just the same,
But you don’t have to try so hard to be cool,
In a world of perfect people you’re still beautiful.

Perfect bodies, perfect hair,
The things that make you stop and stare.
Perfect makeup for a perfect face
They’re way ahead in the perfect race,
But everything is not so easy…
So the girls choose perfect boys
To come play with their perfect toys,
And the boys want perfect girls
To run their fingers through their curls,
But everything is not so easy…

[interlude]

Wake up,
Get a clue
There’s more to life than high society,
You’re not
A fool,
Just be yourself, no popstar wannabe.

Yeah everybody’s so damn perfect,
Girls pretty in pink and boys in blue,
They’ve all got different names yet they’re all lookin’ the same,
But you don’t have to try so hard to be cool,
In a world of perfect people you’re still beautiful.
