Bo Burnham - The Perfect Woman Lyrics






(So I've done a lot of comedy, so let's, uh, take a little break from that...and this is just a song that, if you'll just indulge me it's, uh yeah)

She was the perfect woman, in every single way,
She made the sun shine brighter, and all my cares go away.
She was the perfect woman, she was a gourmet chef,
They say that love is blind, well it's also deaf.

Cause Helen Keller was the perfect woman, and no one understands,
just how talented she was with her hands...UGH.
God made her the perfect woman, I was the finishing touch.
She was the perfect woman cause she didn't talk so much.

She wanted to name the kids, so I finally let her,
it turned out horribly; Chewbacca could've done better.. RAAAAAA
But a guess it was alright, we had a boy and a girl.
Just me and Helen, ehhh-haaa, and Earl!

Cause Helen Keller was my miracle worker, I was her one-man-show,
I could walk around the house naked, and she wouldn't even know.
Helen Keller was my perfect woman, i was her only need
She didn't mind the zits on my ass, it gave her more to read

It gave her more to read, it gave her more to read
It gave her more to read, it gave her more to read
More to read, It gave her more to read, more to read

Helen Keller was my perfect woman, but I don't think she cared.
I played this song for her, she just sat there and stared.
She was still my perfect woman, I was sort of a mess,
I asked her to marry me, she said, "UH-EE-OHHH!"

    Hello, I am a wannabe comedian and I love to write song parody's. Rucka Rucka Ali, The lonely Island, Bo Burnham, The key of awesome, nerd out, stephen lynch and many other youtubers have inspired me. Now I know I can't sing and thought to my self it's worth a shot at chasing one of my dreams and to release one of my parody's. Please check out my first song parody here on youtube by the name of I'm a paedo. Thank you.

  49. B.... ....

    I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT

  50. M.... H....

    you are so fucken good. I want to meet you some day Bo!

  51. D.... L....

    Breaking her fingers after so she cant tell anyone

  52. H.... S....

  53. B.... ....

    I forgot about Keller, then I remembered my 6th grade class, reading about her, then I really realized who he was talking about

  58. D.... O....

    Hi gang

  59. S.... W....

    That low note kinda caught me off guard....DAM

  60. R.... F....

    If hellen Keller jacks me off is it a hand job or blow

  61. m.... n....

    I'm going to hell 😂😂

  62. D.... R....

    Tu voz es increíble, no te conocia pero ppr alguna extraña razon llegue aquí 😂

    2:14 when he turns his head, does anyone else see a resemblance to Kim Taehyung? FELLOW ARMYS PLEASE TELL ME I'M NOT CRAZY!!

  66. C.... ....

    U have to put her in a circle room and tell her to find the corner

  67. L.... 0....

    OI QUEM VEIO PELO MEIA UM

  68. W.... C....

    Neatmike???

  69. A.... ....

    Should have tuned the guitar first

    A.... ....

    Alanthelonewolf he’s using a capo bud

    A.... ....

    Sure but that's not relevant. If you put a capo on a guitar that's already out of tune, the guitar will still be out of tune, just raised an extra half step up.

  70. C.... N....

    *Hi gang*

  71. M.... ....

    It’s hard to see that this is Bo. It sounds like him, sort of looks like him, but would the person in this video make a film???? I think not....

  72. R.... P....

    Just press the 5 several times and enjoy that drug

  73. H.... L....

    Hahaha you and me both bro I’ll save you a seat 😂😂😂

    The first time I heard this was a video of his live performance. I didn’t even know he was talking about Helen Keller. I just heard the ending, realized it was a deaf girl, and started wheezing until I died.

  77. J.... A....

    Wow, 4 days before I was born.

  78. x.... ....

    “She didn’t mind the zits on my ass, it gave her more to read”😂😂😂😂😂

  79. A.... F....

    the voice cracks made me smile because i know that bo would be able to hit those notes today with no problem

    you've grown as a person, man 👍
    partly because your songs are better and this one is far less borderline than some of your other songs but i adore your voice today so you're doing great.

    also the shirt clashes with your tie but it's okay

  80. P.... W....

    Omg that voice crack literally melted my heart!

  81. C.... C....

    Your philosophy sucks

  82. v.... ....

    the voice cracks were ironic because he could make his voice deep but not high.

  83. �.... ....

    2:14 reeeeeeeeee

  84. g.... m....

    Did he make a pun on goosebumps books

  85. B.... R....

    I have hearing aids & glasses. Occasionally I call myself the reincarnation of Helen Keller & this is the best throwback right now. 2k18 Listening.

  86. t.... ....

    "I played this song for her, she just sat there and stared..."

    DEADDDD

  87. J.... l....

    she didnt mind the zits on my ass, it gave her more to read

  88. G.... R....

    Yes, you are going to hell.

  89. a.... ....

    2:13 *REEEEEEEEEEEEE*

  90. A.... F....

    The voice cracks xD

  91. f.... b....

    I love the 240p resolution. Other than that, great song!

  92. K.... P....

    Oh my god that voice crack is beautiful

  93. k.... a....

    This was ten years ago

    k.... a....

    pesky bee 11 years, which is even crazier

  94. P.... N....

    I watch bo’s videos and its all blurry but then I realize his camera quality is crap, but for Bo it’s acceptable.

  95. M.... p....

    THOSE VOICE CRACKS OML

  96. S.... S....

    I sometimes think I'm fairly thick skinned, but it actually makes me cry to see privileged little brats singing and poking fun at vulnerable people, especially the disabled. Helen Keller was a woman who overcame almost insurmountable odds and learned to communicate, read, write and even speak. But that makes her funny to a bunch of bullies-by-proxy who like to laugh at disabled people. WEAK

    S.... S....

    Saffron Sugar It's satire. Do you think he actually meant what he said? If people took him seriously he wouldnt have a Netflix comedy special.

    S.... S....

    Bitch stfu its a joke omlllll

  97. N.... M....

    Hey gang

  98. J.... L....

    I've been following Bo for a decade and, somehow, I just heard this song for the first time tonight. Until this point, I have defended Bo but, after hearing this. He is most certainly going to hell and, I'm going with him, because thats the kind of place I would like to spend eternity.

  99. n.... r....

    a blind person...and yes, blind people can use the computer too...but as a blind person, i find this song absolutely fucking hilarious. i agree with the quote at the beginning. if you can laugh at one group, you should be able to laugh at all groups. god, this song is fucking awesome :)

    n.... r....

    noah reinhardt yessss!!!!

    n.... r....

    Wait did you get help typing this or...?
