• bir dresden dolls şarkısı

    i could make a dress
    a robe fit for a prince
    i could clothe a continent
    but i can't sew a stitch

    i can paint my face
    and stand very very still
    its not very practical
    but it still pays the bills

    i can't change my name
    but i could be your type
    i can dance and win at games
    like backgammon and life

    i used to be the smart one
    sharp as a tack
    funny how that skipping years ahead
    has held me back

    i used to be the bright one
    top in my class
    funny what they give you when you
    just learn how to ask

    i can write a song
    but i cant sing in key
    i can play piano
    but i never learned to read

    i can't trap a mouse
    but i can pet a cat
    no i'm really serious!
    i'm really very good at that

    i can't fix a car
    but i can fix a flat
    i could fix alot of things
    but i'd rather not get into that

    i used to be the bright one
    smart as a whip
    funny how you slip so far when
    teachers dont keep track of it

    i used to be the tight one
    the perfect fit
    funny how those compliments can
    make you feel so full of it

    i can shuffle cut and deal
    but i can't draw a hand
    i can't draw a lot of things
    i hope you understand
    i'm not exceptionally shy
    but i've never had a man
    that i could look straight in the eye
    and tell my secret plans

    i can take a vow
    and i can wear a ring
    and i can make you promises but
    they won't mean a thing

    can't you do it for me, i'll pay you well
    fuck i'll pay you anything if you could end this

    can't you just fix it for me, it's gone berserk...
    fuck i'll give you anything if
    you can make the damn thing work

    can't you just fix it for me, ill pay you well,
    fuck ill pay you anything
    if you can end this
    hello, i love you will you tell me your name?
    hello, i'm good for nothing - will you love me just the same?

  • van morrison'ın days like this'inin açılış şarkısı ve albümden yayınlanmış ilk single. irlandalı müzisyen bu şarkıyı albümün çıkışından kısa bir süre sonra evleneceği sevgilisi michelle rocca'ya ithaf etmiştir. bu konuda have i told you lately ile de perfect fit ortaklık taşımaktadır. sözlerini de yazayım tam olsun;

    now baby just lately you've been holding back too much
    your looks and my language, this could be the perfect touch
    what you are asking fits with everything on my list
    this could be the perfect fit

    tell me that it's madness to want something quite like this
    but they don't understand the magic that ı can't resist
    oh and wouldn't it be so tragic if everything just went amiss
    and this could be the perfect fit

    they say no one is perfect
    some people might take the piss
    and we say we're just friends, come on
    tell me what's wrong with this
    but ı say keep it simple (keep it simple)
    when we haven't started yet
    and this could be the perfect fit

    see that dress you're wearing
    say it suits you right down to the ground
    tell me where in my world a better loving woman can be found?
    well ı've searched high and low now
    and from where that you and i sit
    and this could be the perfect fit

    see that dress you're wearing (that dress you're wearing)
    suits you right down to the ground
    (suits you right down to the ground)
    tell me where in my world a better loving woman can be found?
    and ı've searched high and low now (searched high and low)
    and from where that you and i sit (oh)
    baby, this could be the perfect fit

    baby, this could be the perfect fit
    come on baby, this could be the perfect fit
    fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, say again
    this could be the perfect fit
    fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit
    this could be the perfect fit
