lyrics

Nobody’s Perfect

A hundred bucks worth of makeup in your face
can't ever disguise the ugliness inside
You can hide your lies in new cars and clothes
and have a smiley face but the disgrace still shows

Jealousy and envy is
the plight of our souls
dwelling in the darkest
corners secretly and
undisclosed
We're all in this together
the same flesh and bone
living in glass houses
defenselessly vulnerable

SO who is without sin and
can throw the first stone?
Nobody but nobody but nobody
but nobody

Nobody's perfect,
that's the way it should be
but this world is full of people thinking
they are polished, shiny clean

Nobody's perfect,
that includes you and me
we're ignoramuses, idiots,
God help us, help us, help us
please

We look for perfection have no direction,
dead and sick from infections, avoid self
corrections, holding up our noses in the air
and pass by personal problems like there's
nothing there

Skeletons in the closet,
monsters under the bed,
deliberately forgotten about
pushed into the back of our heads
Covering up dirty deeds with mud
pretending life is fabulous, keeping it cool
acting as if the sun revolves around you
every one does, every one does, every one does
every one does but

Nobody's perfect,
that's the way it should be
but this world is full of people thinking
they are polished, shiny clean

Nobody's perfect,
that includes you and me
we're ignoramuses, idiots,
God help us, help us, help us
please
