About Perfect

Alanis Morissette's "Perfect" handles the complications of parental expectations and societal pressure, providing a moving examination of the toll these standards take on a person's sense of self-worth. The words propagate the idea that only perfection deserves love, painting a vivid picture of an oppressive individual that is probably a father or other authoritative figure. The second verse of the song explores the emotional agony that results from ultimately falling short of these high expectations in greater detail as the song goes on. .
