kevin godley - confessions lyrics

[verse 1]
i’m a fraud, and all the talking in the world won’t change that
not going to change the world as a writer
i come here ’cause i like the sound of my own voice
and i get to feel like somebody for a while

[verse 2]
and i cheat just like my dad
and if you wanna make good in this world
you gotta punch above your weight, son
and if you get hit and you don’t fit, just listen
polish ’til its perfect, ’cause nothing else is
then upgrade it a little
man, how he liked that word
sure sounded sweeter than lying
[verse 3]
the whole polishing thing was a, a kid’s fantasy
he always had some cool+looking rides
and i got to drive ’em on a sunday
but they weren’t ours
he was just cleaning rich folks’ cars
and he wasn’t quite the down+home dream dad
we all wanted him to be

[verse 4]
he was laying uptown b+tches in their prim motel across the state
and polishing the edsel, as he called it, was his dirty little secret
in the end mom threw him out and wrote a book about it called
“polish ’til it’s perfect, ’cause nothing else is”

[verse 5]
two years on, pop caught something off an heiress
he was banging in kansas
and died on his own in a town called poverty
me, i guess it’s in the genes
polish ’til its perfect, ’cause nothing else is
polish ’til its perfect, ’cause nothing else is
polish ’til its perfect, ’cause nothing else is
then upgrade it a little
