Perfect Skin lyrics

Artist  : Lloyd Cole 
Song : Perfect Skin



 Send "Perfect Skin" Ringtone to your Cell 

 I choose my friends only far too well
I’m up on the pavement, they’re all down in the
cellar
With their government grants and my i.q.
They brought me down to size, academia blues
Louise is a girl, I know her well
She’s up on the pavement, yes she’s a weather
girl
And I’m staying up here so I may be undone
She’s inappropriate, but then she’s much more fun
and
When she smiles my way
My eyes go out in vain
She’s got perfect skin
Shame on you, you’ve got no sense of grace, shame
on me
Ah just in case I might come to a conclusion
Other than that which is absolutely necessary
And that’s perfect skin
Louise is the girl with the perfect skin
She says turn on the light, otherwise it can’t be
seen
She’s got cheekbones like geometry and eyes like
sin
And she’s sexually enlightened by cosmopolitan
and
When she smiles my way
My eyes go out in vain
For her perfect skin
Yeah that’s perfect skin
She takes me down to the basement to look at her
slides
Of her family life, pretty weird at times
At the age of ten she looked like greta garbo
And I loved her then, but how was she to know
that
When she smiles my way
My eyes go out in vain
She’s got perfect skin
Up eight flights of stairs to her basement flat
Pretty confused huh, being shipped around like
that
Seems we climbed so high now we’re down so low
Strikes me the moral of this song must be there
never has been one
