    Perfect Couples
    I know some friends of mine
    Think about them all the time
    Why can’t my life be like that?
    I’ve seen them in the park
    Restauranting after dark
    Working out on their yoga mats
    Stars of the dancehall crowd
    Married young, took their vows
    Comfort in their boldness and their flair
    Dab hands for all to see
    Stroke of brush and poetry
    His cut of cloth, the contours of her hair
    Thank you for the invite tonight
    Perfect snacklets, perfect drinks
    I’m getting ideas from your interiors
    Perfect apartment, perfect kids
    Perfect couples are breaking up
    What have they done?
    Those perfect couples are breaking up
    What have they done?
    Don’t make me feel so good
    Expect that stuff in Hollywood,
    Not in my current milieu
    Sexual tension at the fridge
    He makes for the organic figs
    Belmondo lips, dangling a cig
    And she, just back from her hike
    And to the gallery she might glide by
    With a basket on a bike
    They’ve got issues too
    But what can you do?
    Bad times, they’ll always see them through
    (It always lurked in her mind)
    Perfect couples are breaking up
    What have they done? (In the back of her mind)
    Perfect couples, they keep breaking up
    What have I done? (It always lurked in his mind)
    Those perfect couples are now breaking up
    What have they done? (In the back of their minds)
    Perfect couples, they keep breaking up
    What have I done?
    Never happy with my girl
    Jealous of a different world
    Suddenly the years slip away
    What am I waiting for? (I see those perfect couples and I)
    What makes me close the door?
    I see those perfect couples (Why can’t I be like them?)
    I admire the most
    Finding fault with my heart (Its always been the same and then)
    And always back to the start
    What makes me get in the fray
    then just throw it away
    Yeah, I throw it away
    Yes I throw it away (only to find)
    Yes I throw it away (only to find)
    Perfect couples are breaking up…

    Not too shabby, guys! At first I had no idea what you were going for, but as it unfolded, I saw it. This must have been hell to choreograph and film! At least the camera guy had an easy job.

    • @cabrinibruno
      @cabrinibruno Před 8 lety +3

      +kraorh I think there were "cuts" because the last girl went out the left door and appeared very fast on the right door. Because this, the video lost some points with me. Sorry. Until this point, I'd give 10/10.

    • @ellenrucks1674

    • @sashamorning
      @sashamorning Před 7 lety +4

      I think that was the only cut, although I know what you mean. This was the backdrop for the song when they played it live.
