Oh I was perfect For the circus If he dared me I'd do it Love makes you stupid I'd give it up But I guess it was not enough 'Cause he never seemed satisfied I know I'm not perfect But at the end of the day, who is? He wanted someone that's perfect Well ok, but can you tell me who is? He set the bar Just above the stars A rocket couldn't reach it But I still kept on reaching He watched me at least a thousand times If he loved me, he'd stop me, but no I know I'm not perfect But at the end of the day, who is? He wanted someone that's perfect Well ok, but can you tell me who is? I saw my future in his eyes So wrong, so wrong Guess I was destined for more in my life 'Cause he didn't break me down, he made me strong I know I'm not perfect But at the end of the day, who is? He wanted someone that's perfect Well ok, but can you tell me who is?

Hey! (Hey!) Everybody! (Everybody!) All around the world Every boy and girl Taking lessons from me Do The Stupidity My Momma she says it's silly My Poppa says, "you look like a fool" But, baby, I don't mind the criticism Because were doing it every day in school Come along with me See how much fun it can be While watching me, baby Do The Stupidity Oh my Momma she says it's silly My Poppa says I look like a fool But, I don't mind the criticism Because were doing it every day in school Come along with me See how much fun it can be Watch it on TV Oh, baby, thats The Stupidity

The accused will rise To be torn in two Guilty of nothin' but loving you This is the judgement And I'm willin' to plead How you don't want me Hopin' this torment will cease Will I be released? There'll be lies, there'll be tears A jury of your peers With a pitiful look of experience Hand down the judgement And if I done wrong And loved you too long Stand up and just testify How can you deny? Objection overruled I wait for my reprieve With the trust of the deceived The wisdom of the fool It's his sorrowful face Too heavy for his head 'Cos he bowed it as something come over him It was the judgement And he falls to his knees Have mercy on me He clings to the hem of her gown She says: "Just take him down" Just take him down Just take him down
