Imperfectly Lyrics - Imperfectly - Ani Difranco

I'm okay 

If you get me at a good angle 

And you're okay 

In the right 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 touch 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
