The Perfect Parts Lyrics
Well, this city has put me through the wash
I've been living here for you
well, I used to take my women on the rocks
and they used to wear out my ballroom shoes
Well, you know that I had one too many drinks
oh, I found hope on your machine
well, you didn't answer my request
you left my whole world on your string
Well, that's your thing, so
Well, I see the words left on the screen
yeah, you know they're bursting just for me
well, you know that I've known you since we were three
oh, we fell in love at seventeen
Well, so I say, what have I learned, what have I learned?
I said, oh, you learned me a heart
well, your lies will burn in alcohol
to sterilize the perfect parts
Well, at least that's a start
I've been living here for you
well, I used to take my women on the rocks
and they used to wear out my ballroom shoes
oh, I found hope on your machine
well, you didn't answer my request
you left my whole world on your string
yeah, you know they're bursting just for me
well, you know that I've known you since we were three
oh, we fell in love at seventeen
I said, oh, you learned me a heart
well, your lies will burn in alcohol
to sterilize the perfect parts
