Imperfectly Perfect

When I started this journey
I had a single goal
I'd make a pizza so stunning
But I quickly lost control

Didn't stop me, didn't stop me
Nothing would've stopped me from making
This pizza-perfect masterpiece
Wouldn't give up, wouldn't shut down
Had to keep, on keep a-kneadin'
This dough catastrophe

So like this piece of pizza
Like this piece of pizza
We know love can be imperfectly perfect
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, no!

Even if it falls apart or ends up messy
Yeah, your love can be imperfectly perfect
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh!

Who cares what it looks, baby?
It's more important that it cooks right, baby
So like this sloppy supper
Love can be imperfectly perfect

I like that metaphor
Let me try a verse

When we mess up, when we mess up
That's when we can grow like the pizza dough
And learn how to flavor it

And we might find
Yeah, we might see
That we taste a topping we would never try
And find a new favorite

Like this piece of pizza topped with
(Are these prunes?)
We know love can be imperfectly perfect
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh!

It might look like it's been
Attacked by wild raccoons
But we know love can be imperfectly perfect
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh!

Who cares what it looks, baby?
It's more important that it cooks right, baby
So like this ugly pizza
Love can be imperfectly perfect

You can have a perfect boyfriend
But you'd probably feel bored
You could run a perfect park
But tell me where is the reward?

If the world was picture-perfect
Then there'd never be a scoop
If you make a giant mess
Just blend it up and call it soup

So, sometimes the imperfect's preferable?
Yeah!
Each flaw makes us more exceptional?
Yeah!

Like this piece of pizza
Like this piece of pizza
We know love can be imperfectly (whoa-oh-oh-oh!)
Perhaps you'd like to go (whoa-oh-oh-oh!)

Pizza, pizza
Yeah, we all relate to pizza
We know love can be imperfectly perfect
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh!

Who cares what it looks like, baby?
It's more important that it cooks right, baby

So like this piece of pizza
Love can be imperfectly perfect

Oh guys!
No? No
Maybe try again (that was not our best)
Perfect
