The 77s
Perfect Blues (Live at the Warehouse, 3/12/88)
[Spoken Intro]
Well, all right.

[Verse 1]
Why don't you get up?
A-get up next to me
Why don't you get up?
A-get up next to me
Well, if you get up close enough to me, baby
You won't like what you see

[Verse 2]
Why don't you stick around?
Stick around me
Why don't you hang out, baby?
Hang out with me
Well, sooner or later you'll get sick of me, baby
A-sick of me, I guarantee

[Verse 3]
I fill up with gas
Lights might glow
Wind me up, but I'll never, ever go
A-no, no, no, no, no, I won't go
I only got one gear, and that's reverse, baby
There I go
Ah
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
You can break me, you can shake me
You won't change me, that I know
You can break it, break it, break it, shake it
But you won't change me, that I know
I'm only one bad apple, I spoil a whole bunch
I'm rotten to the core
Ah, play that thing! Yeah!

[Piano Solo]
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5]
Ah, you keep on looking, baby
Ain't gonna find what you're looking for
Keep on looking, looking, looking, looking
Ain't gonna find what you're looking for
Well, some kinda perfect man that you can worship, baby
Ain't on this earth anymore
Yeah
[Verse 6]
Oh, give it up
Forget it, babe, it won't work
Oh, give it up, give it up
Forget it, baby, it won't work
Well, you're looking for a perfect boy or girl? Well
Forget it baby, they're all jerks

[Spoken Outro]
Thank you. It's great to have you all back after so many months.
