lyrics
You've not got classical beautiful eyes
And you'd have to agree
That there's no beautifully sight than them gazing at me
Is this attraction in reverse a blessing or a curse upon me
You've not got the physique of a model
And you'll never walk the catwalks and
You talk harsh and drink from the bottle
But that's forgotten by the time I pop the cork
Is this attraction in reverse a blessing or a curse upon me
Where the worse I'll be is happy
Is a case of un-natural selection
You ain't perfect - you're better than perfection
Can't you understand what I'm saying
And don't you hear that orchestra playing
Shouldn't there be violins and slushy strings and everything
When I look at you the way I do
You've not got a sense of style to die for
You're very individual
But I can't help but smile more
When I see you in those little clothes
You've not got what it takes to win a Nobel prize
But then neither have I
And you seem to manage just alright with what you've got
I'll stand aside and I won't criticize
Is this attraction in reverse a blessing or a curse upon me
Where the worse I'll be is happy
Is a case of un-natural selection
You ain't perfect - you're better than perfection
Can't you understand what I'm saying
And don't you hear that orchestra playing
Shouldn't there be violins and slushy strings and everything
When I look at you the way I do
