[Chorus: All & Daniel Seavey + Jack Avery]
Gonna give my love away
'Cause you don't deserve it
And I feel some type of way
'Cause you left me broken
Though I tried and tried again
See, the fight ain't worth it
And no matter what you say
You know you're far from perfect

[Refrain: All]
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect, now
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect, now
You're not so perfect

[Verse: Zach Herron]
I got no time to deal with your negativity
I'm losing my patience all on your half apologies
No way we can make it with all this animosity
No longer my problem imma switch my priorities

[Refrain: All]
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect, now
You're not so perfect

[Chorus: All & Daniel Seavey + Jack Avery]
Gonna give my love away
'Cause you don't deserve it
And I feel some type of way
'Cause you left me broken
Though I tried and tried again
See, the fight ain't worth it
And no matter what you say
You know you're far from perfect

[Refrain: All]
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect, now
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect, now
You're not so perfect

[Verse: Corbyn Besson]
I got no time to deal with your negativity
I'm losing my patience all on your half apologies
No way we can make it with all this animosity
No longer my problem imma switch my priorities

[Refrain: All]
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect, now
You're not so perfect

[Chorus: All & Daniel Seavey + Jack Avery]
Gonna give my love away
'Cause you don't deserve it
And I feel some type of way
'Cause you left me broken
Though I tried and tried again
See, the fight ain't worth it
And no matter what you say
You know you're far from perfect

[Refrain: All]
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect, now
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect
You're not so perfect, now
You're not so perfect

Why Don’t We is a boy band consisting of Daniel Seavey, Zach Herron, Corbyn Besson, Jonah Marais and Jack Avery. The members individually gained recognition over social media by posting covers and doing live streams. Seavey was also a contestant on season 14 of the American TV show American Idol. The group started activities on September 27, 2016, with the release of their two singles “Taking You” and “Nobody Gotta Know” and EP Only The Beginning, shortly thereafter.

The band gained a lot of recognition from their 2017 single “Something Different”. They went on to release four EPs in that year, notably gaining recognition for their collaboration with YouTuber Logan Paul, who also directed several of their music videos at this time.

Their first release in 2018, the Ed Sheeran-written “Trust Fund Baby,” ranked #2 on the American iTunes Chart, and was the band’s highest achievement to that date. They released three singles in June, July and August of that year preceding their first full length album on August 31, 2018. “Talk”, the second pre-release, peaked at #1 on the American iTunes Chart, surpassing their personal record just five months later.
