Perfect Example
"Women look at men like a giant sale tag, but by the time you realize the product sucks, it's out of warranty, you've lost the receipt, and you've convinced yourself that you've invested too much time and money to justify getting rid of it."
~ Sonny Uthith

Lyrics
Key of C – June, 2008
They stop and they stare, you already know who walked through the door
Trying not to act like they’re hiding the fact they’re picking their jaws up off the floor
Miss Helen of Troy, the ships have set sail, destined to go to every shore
But beauty’s blind, even in the light, try as I may, I can’t not cite you as
A perfect example
————— You don’t even know me, you think that you own me
You might if you’d only look into my eyes. Attendere Bonavox, to play in your sandbox
But I can’t bring myself to tell you lies, your blatant denies
Will end in a hard lesson learned which you’ll come to despise
You stop and you stare, trying to compare the signs at the mall
Trying not to act like they’re hiding the fact there’s nothing of value there after all
Like winding a toy, comparisons pale from those in the know to those you’ll ignore
But soon you’ll find, even in the night, cry as I may, I just lost sight of
A perfect example
REFRAIN: ————————————————————————————-
BRIDGE: ——– Like a game, I just have to claim that power and fame
Resides in my name, its always the same
REFRAIN: ————————————————————————————-
It ends with a hard lesson learned that you’ll come to despise in life
FIN
