lyrics

Life isn't perfect, it's what you make it
So let's make it perfect and smile on the day
Take every aspect, rednecks and rejects
Smooth out the defects and make them OK
Nosejobs and braces, skintucks and laces
Elegant faces are soon on their way
Youthful with lotions, magical potions
Oceans and oceans of smooth soothing clay

Step into a dream supreme
Clearer than a mountain stream
A sky blue as blue can be

All the birdies in the trees
Singing to a scented breeze
As rich as the deepest sea

Butterflies everywhere
Lurch in spirals without care
Earthed with a wild desire

So many flowers in the fields
Colourful as cockatiels
And you with your eyes on fire

You - you're just too good to be true
You you - always know exactly what to do
You you you - forever in demand
You you you you - will always understand
When I say: Oh!
Woah-oh-oh!

The world is a cesspit, it's what we've made it
Jammed with destruction from here to doomsday
Stripped every asset, squeezed it and drained it
Turned it to dogshit and thrown it away
Deskfans and Raybans, hatstands and Cokecans
Dusty old bedpans all choked with clay
Cartons and curtains, broken-down fountains
Mountains and mountains of death and decay

Stumble through a shattered door
Out across a wasted floor
Dark as a lifeless sea

All the static in the air
Rancid as a rotten pear
The wind screaming through the trees

Skulls and bones everywhere
Thrown about without a care
The fields going up in flames

So much acid in the rain
Filled with bitterness and pain
And you, you should be ashamed

You - you're just too bad to be true
You you - never know what the hell to do
You you you - are never in demand
You you you you - just don't understand
When I say: No!
Don't want any more
There's the door
