I'd rather have a **** Than a shart, I'd rather have a bed ache Than a headache, I would prefer a scratch Rather than an itch, And I'd rather be filthy rich. But instead I understand It may be better, To be satisfied With a consonant letter, It's more common Than a vowel, my friend, Than an x-y-z perfect At the end. I won’t argue with the Ideal of perfection, Because it’s more than just Natural selection, Hard work and ambition Rule endeavor, You may be short With the largest pure lever, Balanced on the fulcrum Of perseverance, Expect excellence But settle for clearance, Otherwise disappointment Makes failure too easy, And if you give up now Your efforts look cheesy.

Rather Than Perfect
I'd rather have a **** Than a shart, I'd rather have a bed ache Than a headache, I would prefer a scratch Rather than an itch, And I'd rather be filthy rich. But instead I understand It may be better, To be satisfied With a consonant letter, It's more common Than a vowel, my friend, Than an x-y-z perfect At the end. I won’t argue with the Ideal of perfection, Because it’s more than just Natural selection, Hard work and ambition Rule endeavor, You may be short With the largest pure lever, Balanced on the fulcrum Of perseverance, Expect excellence But settle for clearance, Otherwise disappointment Makes failure too easy, And if you give up now Your efforts look cheesy.
