Perfect World

Liz Phair · whitechocolatespaceegg [1998]

What a pretty life you have

Oh boy it's a pretty life you have

And I would need a map

just so I could navigate the backyard

Home is very ordinary

I know I was born to lead a double life

Of murder, strife and misery

And when I find it, I know I'll make sense of me



I want to be cool, tall, vulnerable and luscious

I would have it all if I'd only had this much

No need for Lucifer to fall if he'd learn to keep his mouth shut

I would be involved with you



I know the girls that live inside your world

Just sitting next to a mortal makes their skin crawl



I want to be cool, tall, vulnerable and luscious

I would have it all if I'd only had this much

No need for Lucifer to fall if he'd learn to keep his mouth shut

I would be involved with you
