Perfect
A.U.Y. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why should I welcome
Your domination
Why should I listen
To explanations

I'm not pretending
To make it simple
Try to be something
Experimental

You don't turn me off
I will never fail
Things I loved before
Are not for sale

Keep yourself away
Far away from me
I forever stay
Your perfect enemy

No longer waiting
Remove illusions
No more complaining
Forget confusion

No more confession
Not sentimental
I am now something
Experimental

You don't turn me off
I will never fail
Things I loved before
Are not for sale

Keep yourself away
Far away from me




I forever stay
Your perfect enemy

When I get a recipe in my head, I generally view a dozen up to twenty recipes. You always seem to come up on every search I do, and I love your recipes. You always take care with ingredients and techniques and procedures. Good job.

Chef: did this for Thanksgiving dinner this year. Hands down the best I've ever had. Prime rib was perfectly cooked too. I took your advice and didn't even look at the oven while it rested for 2 hours. You are the man!

@Yankee Chef i’m sure he’d say “good riddance”...he’s making more than enough of a paycheck without the help of rabid trump supporters

Yankee Chef

Because he wound up getting political and many many people turned him off
