Lyrics

[Verse 1]
'Cause you're beautiful (Perfection)
Like no other
(Flawless, absolutely flawless)
'Cause you're beautiful (Perfection)
(Just like perfection)
Baby (Flawless)
Maybe (Absolutely flawless)
(Uh huh 'cause you're beautiful) (Perfection)
Maybe tonight
They'll see you tonight (Flawless, absolutely flawless)
(Uh huh 'cause you're beautiful)
Beautiful (Perfection)
(Just like perfection)
Beautiful (Flawless, absolutely flawless)
[Verse 2]
And it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me
The things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no one
[Verse 3]
And it's no good
Waiting, waiting
And it's no good
Waiting
[Verse 4]
You've got to go to the city
Always the same
Always the same dreams, yeah, yeah
Always the same
Yes, you're moving up
[Verse 5]
Well, you've got to think of something
'Cause your job pays you nothing
But you've got the things God gave ya
So the music may yet be your savior
[Verse 6]
Gotta be a way, some way
Gotta be some way to make your way to the light
(All the girls say)
Gotta be some way today, today
Maybe tonight
Maybe tonight
[Verse 7]
And it's always the same
Always the same
Always the same dreams, yeah, yeah
Always the same
Yes, you're moving up
[Verse 8]
You're beautiful
You are and you know it
Mmm
You're wasted here
You're a star
In this small town of hand-me-downs who don't even know it
[Verse 9]
Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's gonna blow
It doesn't, it doesn't, it doesn't, it doesn't
It doesn't get better
[Verse 10]
Don't you know you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city, baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass
[Verse 11]
Gotta be a way, some way
Gotta be some way to make your way to the light
(All the boys say, yeah)
Gotta be some way today, today
Maybe tonight
They'll see you tonight
[Verse 12]
It's always the same
Always the same
Moving up
Always the same dreams, yeah, yeah
Always the same
Yes, you're moving up
[Verse 13]
'Cause you're beautiful (Perfection)
Like no other
(Flawless, absolutely flawless)
'Cause you're beautiful (Perfection)
(Just like perfection)
Baby (Flawless)
Maybe (Absolutely flawless)
(Uh huh 'cause you're beautiful) (Perfection)
Maybe tonight
They'll see you tonight (Flawless, absolutely flawless)
(Uh huh 'cause you're beautiful)
Beautiful (Perfection)
(Just like perfection)
Beautiful (Flawless, absolutely flawless)
[Verse 14]
And it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me
The things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no one
[Verse 15]
And it's no good
Waiting, waiting
And it's no good
Waiting
[Verse 16]
You've got to go to the city
You've got to go to the city, yeah
They're gonna find you there
Uh-huh
[Verse 17]
(Uh-huh 'cause you're beautiful) Beautiful
(I know I am flawless, absolutely flawless) Uh-huh
(Uh-huh 'cause you're beautiful)
(I know that I am flawless, absolutely flawless)
(Uh-huh 'cause you're beautiful)
[Verse 18]
Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's gonna blow
It doesn't, it doesn't, it doesn't, it doesn't
It doesn't get better
[Verse 19]
Don't you know you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city, baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass
[Verse 20]
It's always the same (Moving, moving up)
(Always the same) More than just (Moving, moving up)
Always the same dreams, yeah, yeah (Moving, moving up)
Always the same
Yes, you're moving up
[Verse 21]
I said you've got to think of something
'Cause your job pays you nothing
But you've got the things God gave ya
So the music may yet be your savior
[Verse 22]
Do you want a savior, savior, save?
Say that you do, yeah
You know you're wasted here, wasted here
And there ain't no miracles happening anytime soon
Happening anytime soon
[Verse 23]
(I know that I am flawless, absolutely flawless)
Always the same (Like perfection) (Absolutely flawless)
Always the same (I know I am flawless, absolutely flawless)
Always the same (Just like perfection) (Absolutely flawless)
Always the same (I know that I am flawless, absolutely flawless)
Always the same (Like perfection) (Absolutely flawless)
Always the same (I know I am flawless, absolutely flawless)
