Piece By Piece - The Tubes

She looks good

But she’s not altogether right

All her parts are not screwed on tight

There’s a touch of tragedy

When she moves

you can see the secret showing through

She’d deny it if she thought I knew

But she could never lie to me

Anyone would think there’s nothing wrong,

she looks so satisfied

But I’ve known about her much too long

She can’t conceal what she feels inside

I’m gonna show her that piece by piece, inch by inch

I can put her back together again

I’ll supply the love she lacks

And give her back exactly what she needs

Bringin' it piece by piece

All I need

to find a way around her defense

is just a little common sense

I don’t have a strategy

I’ll be there

like I have so many other times

She’ll reveal to me a certain sign

That only I can see

Anyone would think there’s nothing wrong,

she seems like she’s complete

But it’s obvious it’s been too long

since she believed what she needs is me

I’m gonna show her that piece by piece, inch by inch

I can put her back together again

I’ll supply the love she lacks

and give her back exactly what she needs

Bringin' it piece by piece

Anyone would think there’s nothing wrong,

but she’s not fooling me

Everybody wants to lead her on,

but I believe what she needs is me--what she needs me

I’m gonna show her that piece by piece, inch by inch

I can put her back together again

I’ll supply the love she lacks

and give her back exactly what she needs

Bringin' it piece by piece
