I'M Perfect

I make a lot of mistakes along the way,
 But I'm still perfect, what more can I say.

 When I make a blunder I do it well,
 Now the rest of the story is easy to tell.

 I don't let the mistakes get me down,
 I just get back up and wipe off my frown.

 I make perfect mistakes, and they teach me.
 That makes me perfect, now do you see?
