So we listen to the radio at work. You know, I love to listen to music and my iPod is jam-packed with over 400 songs but I rarely listen to the radio. This song has been played a lot and so I finally sat down and listened to it without any noise around me or anything and I realized that I really liked it and then I researched the lyrics and I like it even more.
So please don't be offended by the mild profanity but these are the lyrics to Pink's "Perfect"...
Made a wrong turn, once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire
Bad decisions, that's alright
Welcome to my silly life
Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss 'No way, it's all good', it didn't slow me down
Mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated
Look, I'm still around
Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than f*ckin' perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You're f*ckin' perfect to me!
You're so mean, when you talk about yourself, you were wrong
Change the voices in your head, make them like you instead
So complicated, look happy, you'll make it!
Filled with so much hatred... such a tired game
It's enough! I've done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons, I've seen you do the same
Oh, pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than f*ckin' perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You're f*ckin' perfect to me
The whole world's scared so I swallow the fear
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice cold beer
So cool in line, and we try try try, but we try too hard and it's a waste of my time
Done looking for the critics, cause they're everywhere
They don't like my jeans, they don't get my hair
Exchange ourselves, and we do it all the time
Why do we do that? Why do I do that?
Why do I do that... ?
Yeah, oh, oh baby, pretty baby... !
Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than f*ckin' perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel
Like you're nothing, you're f*cking perfect to me
You're perfect, you're perfect!
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You're f*ckin' perfect to me...

I LOVE this song! The radio version has been sanitized and they do not play the f word. But it is a pretty cool song either way. And I'm not a Pink fan.
that's the trouble with music mow a days, if they "artist" does not have a lot of swear words in the song that it will not sell.My late Dad used to say that the Beatles music was just noise,I wounder what he would say about the so called music of today?
