Hush little baby, gotta be strong 

'cause in this world we are born to fight... 

Be the best, prove them wrong 

A winner's work is never done... 

Reach the top, number one 

Perfection... 

Oh, perfection 

You drive me crazy with perfection 

I've worn my pride as my protection 

Perfection...oh!

I was taught to be tough 

The best that you can be ain't enough 

Crack the whip, sacrifice 

But I found out paradise had a price 

I didn't know it then 

But oh I know it now 

You gotta work as hard as love 

To make the love work out 

You know this heart of mine 

Has made some big mistakes 

I guess that when it comes to love 

I just don't know what I takes... 

Chorus: 

All my life I've been driven by perfection 

Pushed it to the limit every day and night 

Whoa...i've been driven by perfection 

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right 

Nothing's perfect when love ain't right...

Gave it all 

Played my part 

I gave everything I had but my heart 

Worked so hard 

Made a name 

But the loneliness inside stays the same 

When love is here today 

And then it's gone today 

You got a list of lovers lookin' like a resum? br> you gotta take some time 

To make it something real 

I guess that when it comes to love 

I just don't know how to feel 

(chorus) 

Oh, perfection 

You drive me crazy with perfection 

I've worn my pride as my protection 

I'm goin' crazy with perfection
