Perfect System

by Oingo Boingo

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm in love with you, I know
And I know that you love me too
I'm in love with you, I know
I'm in love with everyone too
We're all comrades now, you know
We're all brothers under the skin
With a few adjustments now
Living in a perfect system
[Refrain]
The adjustment's simple
there's really no pain
You'll hardly notice anything has changed
[Pre-Chorus]
Living in a programmed life
Never really has ups and downs
There's no need for fighting now
There's no reason to wear a frown
[Chorus]
In a perfect system
There's no confrontation
Unnecessary friction
To impede our concentration
We've simply done away with
Unnecessary friction
I live in a system
I got an occupation
I get enough nutrition
By eating protein biscuits
Recommended by the system
It's routine regulation
I had an operation
[Verse 2]
I'm in love with you, I know
And I know that you love me too
I'm in love with you, I know
I'm in love with everyone too
[Refrain]
I can tell by the look in your blank
dull eyes
That you agree
but I'm not a bit surprised
[Pre-Chorus]
Living in a programmed life
Never really has ups and downs
There's no need for fighting now
There's no reason to wear a frown
[Chorus]
I had an operation
With no adverse reaction
They tampered with my brain some
It helped me see the reason
For living in the system
It helped me see the reason
[Bridge]
(We're all brothers in a perfect world)
In a perfect world
there's uniformity
(We're all brothers in a perfect world)
In a perfect world
there's continuity
(We're all brothers in a perfect world)
There's no need for spontaneity
Perfect system
we're all brothers to the end
Brothers to the end
Brothers to the end
[Outro]
I know
and I know that you love me too
(Brothers to the end)
I know I'm in love with everyone too
(Brothers to the end)
I know we're all comrades under the skin
(Brothers to the end)
I know
living in a perfect system
Brothers to the end
