In A Perfect World

[Verse 1]
Clean house, clean cut
Suit and tie, 9 to 5
No dirt, no rust
Roast on the stove, honey, I'm home

[Chorus]
In a perfect world, we'd never fight, but we'd never make up
In a perfect world, I wouldn't make you laugh when I drink too much
Yeah, it might be nice to have a shiny white picket fence life
But I bet a man like you would never love this girl
In a perfect world

[Verse 2]
I'd be patient
But you wouldn't talk with that gravel drawl
We'd have a king bed
Maybe a little more room, but I would feel so far from from you

[Chorus]
In a perfect world, we'd never fight, but we'd never make up
In a perfect world, I wouldn't make you laugh when I drink too much
Yeah, it might be nice to have a shiny white picket fence life
But I bet a man like you would never love this girl
In a perfect world, ooh
In a perfect world

[Bridge]
"I love you" wouldn't mean as much
If finding you hadn't been so tough
I don't think there's a place for us
In a perfect world

[Chorus]
Oh, in a perfect world, we'd never fight, but we'd never make up
In a perfect world, I wouldn't make you laugh when I drink too much
Yeah, it might be nice to have a shiny white picket fence life
But I bet a man like you would never love this girl
In a perfect world
In a perfect world
