My hair's a wreck
Mascara runs
My feet get dirty and my skin burns in the sun.
My lips they bleed
But I still sing my songs
Takes me a minute to admit it when I'm wrong.
Pretty is as pretty does, but pretty's not my thing...
This is what you get
This is who I am
Take me now or leave me
Anyway you can
Sometimes I trip and fall
But I know where I stand
If you're thinking about changing my direction
Don't mess with imperfection.
My back is weak but my will is strong
Got good intentions but I never follow through
And I say too much don't know when to leave
In case you're looking that's my heart there on my sleeve
Ego trips and stupid slip ups, I'm a mess but...
This is what you get
This is who I am
Take me now or leave me
Anyway you can
Sometimes I trip and fall
But I know where I stand
If you're thinking about changing my direction
Don't mess with imperfection.
Scratched and bruised, a little used, but baby I work fine
You might call me damaged goods, but I'm one of a kind.
My hair's a wreck
No, I'm not perfect but I'm not the only one...
This is what you get
This is who I am
Take me now or leave me
Anyway you can
Sometimes I trip and fall
But I know where I stand
If you're thinking about changing my direction
Don't mess with imperfection.
