Perfect System - Oingo Boingo

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 the perfect system

The adjustment’s simple;

there’s really no pain

You’ll hardly notice anything has changed

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

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…

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

I can tell by the look in your blank, dull eyes

That you agree, but I’m not a bit surprised

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

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

(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

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!
