I've been to a Druid's den on a New Year's day And I've done Scotland on a motorbike, so how can you say That I'm not perfect for you What do I have to do I can be sexy when I breathe into your ear And when I sleep I look just like all those perfumed ads, I swear But I'm not perfect for you What do I have to do And on a day off I've walked across the Brooklyn Bridge - isn't that cool Last week I took the Staten Island Ferry into a breezy afternoon I even got off, walked the crumbling docks It's quite a view I could share that with you Ever seen me when I laugh, my eyes they shine You'd get to touch me anytime if you were mine And I can sing; I'll be your nightingale welcoming the sun I'll write you song after song after song; I know you'd love it, wouldn't anyone? But I'm not perfect for you What do I have to do?
