Santigold - A Perfect Life [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Don't I know what they all want
A perfect speci-men, I reel them in at once
Every move I make, I flaunt
Get pretty like I meant it, a real debutante
I know I'm surely hot
When they put up a fuss
Get anything I want
I do command applause
Don't mean to turn 'em out
It seems it's just because
It's something that I got
They don't know what it was

[Chorus]
But every time I close my eyes
What is it I'm dreaming of?
A perfect life
Wake up I know every time, all doey-eyed
And I think about you
Oh-oh-oh, you
Every time I close my eyes
I'm nearer to the day my love needs no disguise
I'll chase it 'til the end of time
The perfect time
It can't be without you, ooh-ooh
Can't be without you-ooh

[Verse 2]
Wish that I could be upfront
Like an army general, with no nuance
But blooming out here in the sun
A guarded little thing, turns perfect all at once
What is this bug I've caught?
What's it an aching of?
I cover up the spots
I wear it like a glove
Can't entertain them all
Create a flawless buzz
But it ain't perfect, not
Until I fall in love

[Chorus]
Every time I close my eyes
What is it I'm dreaming of?
A perfect life
Wake up I know every time, all doey-eyed
And I think about you
Oh-oh-oh, you
Every time I close my eyes
I'm nearer to the day my love needs no disguise
I'll chase it 'til the end of time
The perfect time
It can't be without you, ooh-ooh
Can't be without you-ooh
