some things don't do you no good to fool with
like three plus three is six
and like the spring or an ernie els golf swing
she's perfect justlike she is
so don't you bother changin'
any sentance that she says
displace one word and the world becomes absurd
she's perfect just like she is
who could make the stars more amazing
could you paint a better sky
what fool would change the color of a daisy
well that's crazy
and like the mets in '69
or the way gladys knight sings it
there just ain't no way to make a longer day
she's perfect just like she is
what fool would find fault with the mountains
or rewrite shakespear's poetry
some men have tried to improve upon her aspect
but that's foolishness
and one day i'll find the nerve to tell her
that i get her
and that i'd never try to change her
'cause that's danger
and who could make the stars more amazing
could you paint a better sky
and who would change the color of a daisy
well that's crazy
she drapes her coat across her shoulder
then says goodbye through crimson lips
out down the street and world is incomplete
she's perfect just like she is
she's perfect just like she is
she's perfect just like she is
