Nobody's Perfect
Lyrics
Cool I am
When I am with you
Cool I'm not
When I am lonely
I feel so sad
What I did wasn't right
I feel so bad
And I must say to you
Sorry, but
Nobody's perfect
Nobody's perfect
What did you expect
I'm doing my best
I feel so sad
But you know I'll be true
I feel so bad
And I must say to you
Sorry, but
Nobody's perfect
Nobody's perfect
What did you expect
I’m doing my best
Nobody's perfect
Nobody's perfect
I was dishonest
I will do my best
Yeah
Cool I am
When I am with you
Cool I'm not
When I am lonely
Nobody's perfect
Nobody's perfect
What did you expect
I'm doing my best
Nobody's perfect
Nobody's perfect
I was dishonest
I will do my best
Yeah
Mmm mmm yeah
Mmm mmm yeah
Perfect, perfect, perfect, perfect
Mmm mmm yeah
Mmm mmm yeah
Perfect, perfect, perfect, perfect

On the Drowned World Tour, Madonna asks a samourai dancer to forgive her her mistakes, because 'nobody's perfect'. She runs towards him, puts her head on his shoulder and finally kneels down for him. Then the master takes his sword and cuts off her talisman. That's at the point where she sings the second 'Cool I am', this time with a natural voice, as if loosing the talisman changed her voice. As the master celebrates his victory, violins cry over Maddy's defeat. Later, during Sky Fits Heaven, M will take revenge.
