The Perfect Fit

Lyrics

I could make a dress
 A robe fit for a prince
 I could clothe a continent
 But I can't sew a stitch
 I can paint my face
 And stand very very still
 Its not very practical
 But it still pays the bills
 I can't change my name
 But I could be your type
 I can dance and win at games
 Like backgammon and life
 I used to be the smart one
 Sharp as a tack
 Funny how that skipping years ahead
 Has held me back
 I used to be the bright one
 Top in my class
 Funny what they give you when you
 Just learn how to ask
 I can write a song
 But I can't sing in key
 I can play piano
 But I never learned to read
 I can't trap a mouse
 But I can pet a cat
 No I'm really serious!
 I'm really very good at that
 I can't fix a car
 But I can fix a flat
 I could fix a lot of things
 But I'd rather not get into that
 I used to be the bright one
 Smart as a whip
 Funny how you slip so far when
 Teachers don't keep track of it
 I used to be the tight one
 The perfect fit
 Funny how those compliments can
 Make you feel so full of it
 I can shuffle cut and deal
 But I can't draw a hand
 I can't draw a lot of things
 I hope you understand
 I'm not exceptionally shy
 But I've never had a man
 That I could look straight in the eye
 And tell my secret plans
 I can take a vow
 And I can wear a ring
 And I can make you promises but
 They won't mean a thing
 Can't you do it for me, I'll pay you well
 Fuck I'll pay you anything if you could end this
 Can't you just fix it for me, it's gone berserk...
 Fuck I'll give you anything if
 You can make the damn thing work
 Can't you just fix it for me, I'll pay you well
 Fuck I'll pay you anything
 If you can end this
 Hello, I love you will you tell me your name?
 Hello, I'm good for nothing, will you love me just the same?
 Oh same...
