Imperfectly Lyrics by Ani DiFranco

Imperfectly Lyrics

    I'm okay
    if you get me at a good angle
    and you're okay
    in the sort of light
    and we don't look
    like pages from a magazine
    but that's all right
    that's all right

    I crashed your pickup truck
    and then I had to drive it back home
    I was crying
    I was so scared
    of what you would do
    of what you would say
    but you just started laughing
    so I started laughing along
    saying, it looks a little rough
    but it runs okay
    it looks a little rough
    but it runs good anyway

    we get a little further from perfection
    each year on the road
    I guess that's what they call character
    I guess that's just the way it goes
    better to be dusty than polished
    like some store window mannequin
    why don't you tocuh me where I'm rusty
    let me stain your hands

    when you're pretty as a picture
    they pound down your door
    but I've been offered love
    in two dimensions before
    and I know that it's not all
    it's made out to be
    let's show them how it's done
    let's do it all imperfectly
