Nothing Is Perfect (Live at Live Aid, John F. Kennedy Stadium, 13th July 1985) - Neil Young

Composed by：Neil Young

Produced by：John Kennedy/Bob Geldof/Jill Sinclair

There's plenty of food

On the table

Lots of love in the house

The children all do what

They're able to do

There's so much to be happy about

I got a woman standing beside me

She really knows

How to stand by her man

She's strong and she's soft

And she's honest to me

She really helps me

To be a good man

But nothing is perfect

In God's perfect plan

Look in the shadow to see

He only gave us the good things

So we'd understand

How life without them would be

There's plenty of wheat

On the prairies

Lots of coal in the mines

We got soldiers so strong

They can bury their dead

And still not go back

Shooting blind

There's women and men

On the workforce

Doing forty hours

Plus overtime

So the hostages

Held at the airport

Can come home

To something worthwhile

But nothing is perfect

In God's perfect plan

Only look in the shadow to see

He only gave us the good things

So we'd understand

What life without them would be

And nothing is perfect

In God's perfect plan

Just looking the shadows to see

He only gave us the good things

So we'd understand

What life without them would be

And there's plenty of food

On the table

Lots of love in the house

The children all do

What they're able to do

We got so much to be happy about

I got a woman standing beside me

She really knows

How to stand by her man

She's strong and she's soft

And she's honest to me

It really helps me

To be a good man

But nothing is perfect

In God's perfect plan

He only gave us the good things

So we'd understand

No nothing is perfect

In God's perfect plan
