Perfect

He's sitting in the school yard
wishing he could play like all the rest

running,jumping and laughing
seemed to be his hardest test

no one likes the "Sick Boy" he said
"Lord why was I born this way"

I rememberd his teacher
and what she told me
she'd say

Who's telling you
you need to be Perfect
nobody's perfect (boy)
Who's telling you
you need to be perfect
cuz youre perfect..to me

He looked so sad when he got home
I asked, if he was alright?

He slowly turned, and looked at me, (I could see)
that he'd been crying all night.

He quietly described his day he said
"I wished the team picked me instead"

staring deep into his eyes i sighed
and I softly said.

Who's telling you
you need to be Perfect
nobody's perfect (boy)
Who's telling you
you need to be perfect
cuz youre perfect..to me

**All our lives
we've had dreams
and hope inside
can achieve all things

and words
we say
can change a life
to change this world
it starts inside....

Who's telling you
you need to be Perfect
nobody's perfect
Who's telling you
you need to be perfect
cuz youre perfect..to me
