Picture-Perfect

[Verse 1][Verse 2]

[Verse 1]

Picture perfect, a life that you saw in a magazine / Or maybe a travelling book /

Wanted to get on that plane and fly away / Cuz you are a rock star deep down inside / You walk with a swagger, got nothin' to hide / Cigarette in your mouth, a cuff on your jeans / Your sideburns are perfect, you're perfect and lean / So you made an oil painting to immortalize / All of the hope and vision in your eyes / In your leisure coat and cowboy hat / North American records and so much to bat for [Chorus]

Please bring me along / Please bring me along / Cuz I want to see everything you have to offer me

[Verse 2]

Get a job lifting cement / Oh, it's so dry, when it rains it gets wet / And the village was great, but now it's a suburb / You left behind half of all that you had learnt / You relearn a couple things along the way / The thrift store so clean, all for half what you'd pay / So you try everything on, on for size /

And drop top your Camaro and go for a ride /

[Bridge]

And I don't mind to sit here and waste all my time / Oh, but this world is not mine to define / And I wanna shine

[Chorus]

Please bring me along / Please take me away / I don't want to stay

[Outro]

And I want to see everything you have to offer me / I want to see everything the world has to offer me / I want to see everything the world has to offer me /

I want to show everything I have to offer it / I want to show everything

I have to offer it now
