Tim Minchin - Not Perfect [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
This is my earth and I live on it.
It's one third dirt and two thirds water
And it rotates and revolves through space
At rather an impressive pace
And never even messes up my hair.
And here's a really weird thing:
The force created by its spin,
Is the force that stops the chaos flooding in.

[Chorus]
This is my earth and it's fine,
it's where I spend the vast majority of my time,
it's not perfect but it's mine,
It's not perfect.

[Verse 2]
This is my country and I live in it.
It's pretty big and nice to walk on
And the bloke who runs my country
Has built a demagoguery
And taught us to be fearful and boring.
And the weirdest is that he is
Conservative of politics
But really rather radical of eyebrow.

[Chorus]
This is my country and it's fine,
It's where I spend the vast majority of my time,
It's not perfect but it's mine,
It's not perfect

[Verse 3]
This is my house and I live in it,
It's made of cracks and photographs.
We rent it off a guy who bought it from a guy
Who bought it from a guy whose granddad left it to him.
And the weirdest thing is that this house
Has locks to keep the baddies out,
But they're mostly used to lock ourselves in

[Chorus]
This is my house and it's fine,
It's where I spend the vast majority of my time,
It's not perfect but it's mine,
It's not perfect.

[Verse 4]
This is my body and I live in it,
It's 29 and 12 month old.
It changed a lot since it was new,
It's done stuff it wasn't built to do,
I often try to fill it up with wine.
And the weirdest thing about it is:
I spend so much time hating it
But it never says a bad word about me.

[Chorus]
This is my body and it's fine,
It's where I spend the vast majority of my time,
It's not perfect but it's mine,
It's not perfect.

[Verse 5]
This is my brain and I live in it,
It's made of love and bad song lyrics.
It's tucked away behind my eyes
Where all my fucked up thoughts can hide,
Cause god forbid I hurt somebody.
And the weirdest thing about a mind
Is that every answer that you find
Is the basis of a brand new cliche

[Chorus]
This is my brain and it's fine,
It's where I spend the vast majority of my time,
It's not perfect but it's mine,
It's not perfect but it's mine,
It's not perfect I'm not quite sure I worked out how to work it,
It's not perfect but it's mine.
