By the way, why do people sometimes write "Permь"?
In general, the "r" sound in the city's name is pronounced as a soft one, although in the correct spelling, it is hard. Similarly, people who live far enough from Perm often don't know that the "r" sound should be softened when pronouncing it. That's the double confusion. :)

But, Liz is absolutely right, [p'erm'] (r - hard) sounds terrible, and it's also difficult to pronounce. But in turn, "Permь" looks quite funny :)
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.
