She's so perfect There's gotta be a downside to being so nice She, she hits a nerve She cuts it right up I aint go no love for myself I aint got her money I aint got her body I aint got a man to myself I aint got a soul so clean Sometimes I can be so mean And I don't smile at everything I see She, she's got it all I am so small for being so bitter She, she sure hits a sore spot When I look to what I've got I can't help but feel jealous I aint got her money... She's so perfect I wish I could hate her But she's so kind She, she's the girl who has everything Who makes you feel like you've got nothing But that's not true... Yeah I've got my brains I might have my pains But I can write and I can dream I aint got a soul so clean Sometimes I can be so mean and I don't smile at everything I see I aint got her money I aint got her body I aint got a man to myself I aint got a soul so clean But I sing with sincerity And I can smile at most things I see Yes I can smile at most things I see...

We were sat in the rain Waiting for it go away Had the tip of my tongue point to the sky And I blinked twice... I learnt my lesson a long time ago Those sort of things just don't mean that much to some You can jump in and you can separate But I can't do it, thats not me Guess I ought to forget Once we started we wouldn't stop With each crack of the bottle top With No thought to the consequence Hell once we had jumped, we were over that fence I learnt my lesson a long time ago... Guess I ought to forget... One measly night I learnt my lesson a long time ago... One measly night. We were sat in the rain...

Three Acres 04:11
if i could own 3 acres and a half a dozen ducks then i could live on my own, without dependence on luck no i wouldn't be wealthy oh but how i would be happy you see when money mixes with art, it falls apart, it falls apart we're all under pressure but tell me what's the measure? of things and diamond rings of being the best, racing against the rest if i could have three acres, three acres one cow and liberty then i could live with certainty, no pain for success or anxiety so you can stuff your job there's so much more that i am looking for you see when time takes it all, the meaning will fall, the meaning will fall we're all under pressure... i'm gonna get myself a greenhouse i'm gonna arrange myself an orchard and I would live free in clean air and green I don't need to climb the ladder so no need to fear the fall I don't need your technology and the things I can't afford I don't your banks or your excess clothes just one cow, three acres and half a dozen ducks just one cow, three acres and half a dozen ducks we're all under pressure...

I don't wanna want you like I did the others I don't wanna resent you like I do already just a little Tonight I'm saying goodbye And I'm not going home with you this time As much as it fills me with regret I know the beginning, the middle and the end Cos I'll always be wanting more And tonight there's no point in closing the door On what I truly need, what I truly want On everything that I've been waiting for I don't wanna want you like I did the others I don't wanna resent you like I do already just a little Well it would be swell if it turned out well But I know the story, the story I don't wanna bruise, and I don't wanna be used And I don't wanna get hurt for the one hundreth time Tonight I am walking away I've got my head held high and I am fine Tonight I'm putting my heart first Because later I'd only feel worse I don't wanna...
