Lyrics of Perfect Misfit by Liz Phair
verse
When i walk down the hall
I hold my head up high
Everybody's looking, dosen't mean they like me
Its not so great to stand out from the crowd
I'm an easy target
They know where to find me
pre-chorus
Run a race an' i win it
Sovle your problem in a minute
It's not a mystery why i'm a misfit
chorus
Here's what's bad about being good
Nobody thanks you when they should
Do a job right respect, i mean
Why can't they just see me for me?
verse
Walking with my lunch tray passing table after table
Nobody makes room, everyone avoids me
People everywhere, but i feel so alone here
"Oh she think's she's perfect?"
"Yeah, a perfect misfit"
chorus
Run a race an' i win it
Sovle your problem in a minute
Its not a mystery why i'm a misfit
verse
Its not the way i want to be
chorus
Here's what's bad about being good
Nobody thanks you when they should
Do a job right respect, i mean
Why can't they just see me for me?
chorus
Here's what's bad about being good
Nobody thanks you when they should
Do a job right respect, i mean
Why can't they just see me for me?
verse
I hold my head up high
Everybodys looking
Dosen't mean they like me
verse
Run a race an' win it
Solve your problem in a minute
Its not a mystery, i'm no misfit
verse
This is the way i'm gonna be (this is the way i'm gonna be)
chorus
Here's what bad about being good
Nobody thanks you when they should
Set a bar high respect, i mean
Why can't they just see me for me?
chorus
Here's what's bad about being good
Nobody likes you like they should
Work so hard, why can't they see?
verse
Wish they'd just appreciate me?
outro
Here's what's good about me
Here's what's good about me
