It is.

I think it's perfect just the way it is
as a red light flickers on and off
striving to survive.

A mother scolds her child
for a "B" on his quiz
but I think it's perfect just the way it is.

The child tells his mother
he just did his best
and I think it's perfect just the way it is.

A little tree small and slender
Tries to grow big and tall
but I think it's perfect just the way it is.

The farmer slowly shakes his head
leaving it all alone.
And according to my analysis,
I think it's perfect just the way it is.
