Not Perfect Lyrics – Tim Minchin

Not Perfect Lyrics by Tim Minchin

This is my earth and I live on it
It’s one third dirt and two thirds water
And it rotates and revolves through space
At rather an impressive pace

And never even messes up my hair
And here’s a really weird thing:
The force created by its spin
Is the force that stops the chaos flooding in

This is my earth and it’s fine
It’s where I spend the vast majority of my time
It’s not perfect but it’s mine
It’s not perfect

This is my country and I live in it
It’s pretty big and nice to walk on
And the bloke who runs my country
Has built a demagoguery

And taught us to be fearful and boring
And the weirdest is that he is
Conservative of politics
But really rather radical of eyebrow

This is my country and it’s fine
It’s where I spend the vast majority of my time
It’s not perfect but it’s mine
It’s not perfect

This is my house and I live in it
It’s made of cracks and photographs
We rent it off a guy who bought it from a guy
Who bought it from a guy whose granddad left it to him

And the weirdest thing is that this house
Has locks to keep the baddies out
But they’re mostly used to lock ourselves in
This is my house and it’s fine

It’s where I spend the vast majority of my time
It’s not perfect but it’s mine
It’s not perfect
This is my body and I live in it

It’s 29 and 12 month old
It changed a lot since it was new
It’s done stuff it wasn’t built to do
I often try to fill it up with wine

And the weirdest thing about it is:
I spend so much time hating it
But it never says a bad word about me
This is my body and it’s fine

It’s where I spend the vast majority of my time
It’s not perfect but it’s mine
It’s not perfect
This is my brain and I live in it

It’s made of love and bad song lyrics
It’s tucked away behind my eyes
Where all my f#cked up thoughts can hide
Cause god forbid I hurt somebody

And the weirdest thing about a mind
Is that every answer that you find
Is the basis of a brand new cliché
This is my brain and it’s fine

It’s where I spend the vast majority of my time
It’s not perfect but it’s mine
It’s not perfect but it’s mine
It’s not perfect I’m not quite sure I worked out how to work it

It’s not perfect but it’s mine
