Alanis Morissette Sometimes Lyrics

Sometimes Lyrics

Sometimes
It's never quite enough
If you’re flawless
Then
you’ll win my love

Don’t forget to win first
place
Don’t forget to keep that smile on your face

Be a good
boy
Try a little harder
You’ve got to measure up
Make me
prouder

How long
Before you screw it up
And how many times do I
have to tell you
To hurry up?

If everything I do's for you
The
least you could do
Is keep quiet

Be a good girl
You gotta try a
little harder
That simply wasn’t good enough
To make us
proud

I’ll live through you
I’ll make you what I never
was
cause if You’re the best
well maybe so am I
Compared to him

Compared to her

I’m doing this for your own damn
good
You’ll make up for what I blew
What’s the
problem?
Why are you crying?

Be a good girl
Push a little farther
now
That wasn’t fast enough
To make us happy

We'll love
you
Just the way you are
If you’re perfect
