Next To Normal Perfect For You Lyrics

HENRY
Our planet is poisoned, the oceans the air
Around and beneath and above you

NATALIE
Um, Henry, that's true and I totally care

HENRY
I'm trying to tell you I love you

NATALIE (spoken)
What?!

HENRY
The world is at war, filled with death and disease
We dance on the edge of destruction
The globe's getting warmer by deadly degrees

NATALIE
And this is one f*cked up seduction

HENRY
This planet is pretty much broken beyond all repair
But one thing is working if you're standing there

Perfect for you
I could be perfect for you I might be lazy, a loner, a bit of a stoner, it's true
But I might be perfect
I'll make myself perfect, perfect for you

You square all the corners
I straighten the curves

NATALIE
You've got some nerve Henry, and I'm just all nerves

HENRY
But even if everything else turns to dirt

BOTH
We'll be the one thing in this world that won't hurt

HENRY
I can't fix what's f*cked up
But one thing I know I can do
I can be perfect for you

NATALIE
I can be perfect for you

BOTH
Perfect for you
