Perfect Candidate — текст песни (Michael Penn)

First she`s going to relocate it
to the southland
stake her claim in Silverlake
what she`s showing off
will be on your account
there`s little doubt she`s
stealing what she confiscates
chalking it all up to fate
that is why she always waits
for the perfect candidate

She`s got every reason in the
world to pick one more
as she will demonstrate
how many does that
make it now?
I`m losing count
it`s tantamount to
stealing what she confiscates
chalking it all up to fate
and she can not hardly wait
for the perfect candidate
congratulations!
take a bow
what will you do now,
anyhow?

She can read your mind
`cause she wrote it for you
you who`ll take surprising bait
like a magic lantern
beaming with projection
my reflection:
slate as blank as
face is straight
makes the perfect candidate
and she can not hardly wait
for her perfect candidate
