My hair's a wreck Mascara runs My feet get dirty And my skin burns in the sun My lips, they bleed But I still sing my songs It takes me a minute To admit it when I'm wrong Pretty is as pretty does But pretty's not my thing This is what you get This is who I am Take me now or leave me Anyway you can Sometimes I trip and fall But I know where I stand And if you're thinking 'bout changin' my direction Don't mess with imperfection My back is weak But my will is true Got good intentions But I never follow through I say too much And don't know when to leave In case you're looking That's my heart there on my sleeve Ego trips and stupid slip ups I'm a mess but This is what you get This is who I am Take me now or leave me Anyway you can Sometimes I trip and fall But I know where I stand If you're thinking 'bout changin' my direction Don't mess with imperfection Scratched and bruised, a little used But baby, I work fine You might call me damaged goods But I'm one of a kind My hair's a wreck No, I'm not perfect But I'm not the only one This is what you get This is who I am Take me now or leave me Any way you can Sometimes I trip and fall But I know where I stand And if you're thinking about changin' my direction Don't mess with imperfection This is who I am And if you're thinking about changin' my direction Don't mess with imperfection
