Perfect World

I got home just after midnight, It’d been a long long day
i know I keep odd hours but I’m in it for the low pay
it’s noble, so noble just doing what I love
I’m mobile, it’s no trouble…it fits me like a glove.
I may not know it yet, I’m in a perfect world


I got the best set of problems of all the folks I know
I’d like to stay and live it up but I got another show
It’s tragic, so tragic, that we can’t stick around
But magic and a little gas money gonna get us to the next town
I may not know it yet, I’m in a perfect world

Wouldn’t it be great if all the bad guys dressed in black?
So we could see them comin’ & we could watch our backs
Wouldn’t it be great if every oyster made a pearl
I may not know it yet, I’m in a perfect world

I can’t afford to pay my taxes, I take it as a good sign
It means I’m making money I just wish that it would stay mine
I’m not needy or greedy, I just don’t think it’s right
That uncle sam oughtta give a damn about the silly songs that I write
I may not know it yet, but I’m in a perfect world

Wouldn’t it be great if all the bad guys dressed in black?
So we could see them comin’ & we could watch our backs
Wouldn’t it be great if every oyster made a pearl
I may not know it yet, I’m in a perfect world

I got home just after midnight… It’d been a long long day!!!!
