Nobody's perfect
It's the struggle that counts
And I'm the perfect example
Of trouble in small amounts
'Cause I'm strong in my weakness
And I'm sweet, but I'm mean
And it's a dirty old world
So don't try to keep it clean
Messy, life is messy
Messy, life is messy
Some people gotta cause chaos
Stir up a steady life
Make things complicated
Start some trouble and strife
'Cause it's hard to be easy going
And it feels good to be bad
And nobody's ever satisfied
With the things they have
Messy, life is messy
Messy, life is messy
You know what I mean
[Guitar solo]
And everything changes
That's the certain chance
So don't walk the straight line
You might as well dance
Messy, life is messy
Messy, life is messy
You know what I mean
Messy, life is messy
Messy, life is messy
