Perfect Homes Songtext

von Darren Hayman

Baby, keep you clothes on
It's not that way and hasn't been for some time.
Sweetheart, what was it you wanted,
Real old floors in every room and a bath big enough for two?

Be calm, be strong,
Money just won't help today,
These things break hearts in perfect homes.
These walls are thin
But all walls let the shit and heartache in
They don't sleep safe in perfect homes.

Angel, don't you want to live?
Don't you want something more than off-white walls and your blessed equity?
Now tell me what if it's a big mistake?
What if a little bit of you hankers for a smaller house with a bigger heart?

Be calm, be strong,
Money just won't help today
These things break hearts in perfect homes.
These walls are thin
But all walls let the shit and heartache in
They don't sleep safe in perfect homes

Behave, be sure,
That what you want can be both mine and yours
Be calm, be strong,
Money just won't help today.
Baby, keep you clothes on
It's not that way and hasn't been for some time.
