lirik lagu belle and sebastian - perfect couples (extended version)
i know some friends of mine
think about them all the time
why can’t my life be like that?
i’ve seen them in the park
restauranting after dark
working out on their yoga mats
stars of the dance hall crowd
married young, took their vows
comfort in their boldness and their flair
dab hands for all to see
stroke of brush and poetry
his cut of cloth, the contours of her hair
thank you for the invite tonight
perfect snacklets, perfect drinks
i’m getting ideas from your interiors
perfect apartments, perfect kids
[chorus]
perfect couples are breaking up
what have they done?
those perfect couples are breaking up
what have they done?
don’t make me feel so good
expect that stuff in hollywood
not in my current milieu
s~xual tension at the fridge
he makes for the organic figs
belmondo lips, dangling a cig
and she, just back from her hike
and to the gallery she might
glide by with a basket on her bike (on her bike)
they’ve got issues too but what can you do?
bad times, they’ll always see them through
it always lurked in her mind
[chorus]
perfect couples are breaking up
what have they done? (in the back of her mind)
those perfect couples are now breaking up
what have i done? (it always lurked in his mind)
those perfect couples are breaking up
what have they done? (in the back of their minds)
those perfect couples, they keep breaking up
what have i done?
never happy with my girl
jealous of a different world
suddenly the years slip away
what am i waiting for? (i see those perfect couples and i)
what makes me close the door?
i see those perfect couples (why can’t i be like them?)
i admire the most
finding fault with my heart (it’s always been the same and then)
and always back to the start
what makes me get in the fray
then just throw it away
yeah, i throw it away
yes, i throw it away (only to find)
yes, i throw it away (only to find)
perfect couples are breaking up
perfect couples are breaking up
perfect couples are breaking up
perfect couples are breaking up
perfect couples, how did they fail
perfect couples, they wind up in jail
perfect couples are breaking up
perfect couples are breaking up
perfect couples are breaking up
perfect couples are breaking up
they’ve got the issues too but they know just what to do?
bad times, they always saw them through
from hyndland to hollywood, there they stand, they look so good
perfect couples, i’ll show them to you
perfect couples are breaking up
perfect couples are breaking up
perfect couples are breaking up
the sun comes up in their coffee cup
but perfect couples they keep breaking up
they keep breaking up
they couldn’t agree on their organic produce
they couldn’t agree on the school for the kids
they came in at night and didn’t have anything to say to each other
that’s the price of perfection my friends
nothing to say
