Perfect for You Lyrics

[HENRY]
Our planet is poison
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]
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 fucked 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

[HENRY & NATALIE]
We'll be the one thing
In this world that won't hurt

[HENRY]
I can't fix what's fucked up
But one thing I know I can do
I can be perfect for you

[NATALIE]
I can be perfect for you

[HENRY & NATALIE]
Perfect for you
