Fundamental of Liar Chapter XXXIX: All About Fool
it's much easy to be fool when talk about lose
only cat, fool and smoke like high place
use weapon and fool effectively
pretty goddess will stay pretty as long as she doesn't open her mouth
fool doesn't catch a cold
better be fool that honest than smart but cheat
(but be smart and honest is still the best)
fool is also human
two types of 'fool'sayer:
the shy one or the foolish one

Remove This Doubt
Its hurting me
Its hurting me
This doubt is hurting me
So remove this doubt
From my heart little girl
And let me live my life
Knowing you care
Remove this doubt
From my mind little girl
And let me breathe again
Feeling my love is shared
Each time we meet
You make me feel so incomplete
Theres no joy in the air
I just dont think you care
Close the door
On doubt forever
And may it nevermore
Make me unsure
Turn the key
And lock away this doubt in me
Keep it in the dark
Not in my heart
Be more tender
Completely surrender
Your love to me
Is sweet and not discrete
Remove this doubt
From my heart little girl
And let me live my life
Knowing you care
Remove this doubt
From my mind little girl
And let me breathe again
Knowing my love is shared
Each time we meet
You make me feel so incomplete
Theres no joy in the air
I just dont think you care
Remove this doubt from my heart (6x)

Cemented Against Your Re-appearance
Forgetting you...
Is not my option.
Nor is there a door to open,
I can walk through...
Without you in my mind.
Forgetting you I thought was a done deal.
I refused a hint of feeling anything for you.
Or so I thought.
I was sure any memory I had riddened,
And cemented against your re-appearance.
Everywhere I went unintended...
With a need to adventure and explore new avenues.
I was drwan to a purpose meant.
What was I doing?
Running from myself?
To forget you?
I never took the time to believe you would leave.
I never took the time to believe that you would.
And when you did...
I sat.
And sat,
Even through cat naps...
Disbelieving.
Forgetting you...
Is not my option.
Nor is there a door to open,
I can walk through...
Without you in my mind.
Forgetting you I thought was a done deal.
I refused a hint of feeling anything for you.
Or so I thought.
I was sure any memory I had riddened,
And cemented against your re-appearance.
'Who's fool am I now? '
Your voice I hear so clear in my head.
'Who's fool am I now?
To me you are the one,
In my mind who is dead! '
Your voice I hear so clear in my head.
'Who's fool am I now? '
'Who's fool am I now? '
Go away!
Your voice I hear so clear in my head.
'Who's fool am I now? '
'Who's fool am I now? '
Go away!
Go away!
'Who's fool am I now? '
'Who's fool am I now? '

You Run Your Mouth
Who doubt say, who doubt when i say, who doubt...
You cats keep beetin' up your chops
I had turn you over to the cops
I dig this spiel i'm going way on your gate
Don't cop your broom pop or buddy or mate
You run your mouth and i'll run my business brother
You run your mouth and i'll run my business brother
You tell everybody i'm busted
You talk so much you got me disgusted
You run your mouth and i'll run my business brother
Yeh, you run your mouth and i'll run my business brother
You run your mouth and i'll run my business brother
You start up telling me you're my pal
End up telling how to handle my gal
You run your mouth and i'll run my business brother
You run your juicy mouth and i'll run my business brother
You run your juicy mouth and i'll run my business brother
You're always telling me what to do
Saying "i wouldn't do that if i was you"
You run your mouth and i'll run my business brother
You clamp your liver lips and i'll run my business brother
Just clamp your liver lips and i'll run my business brother
If i follows your advice on how to make dough
I'd been in the jailhouse long ago
You run your mouth and i'll run my business brother
Yeh, you run your juicy mouth and i'll run my business brother
Just you run your mouth and i'll run my business brother
You tell everybody i'm busted
You talk so much you got me disgusted
You run your mouth and i'll run my business brother

Firestarter
You know I've seen plenty like you
Trouble ain't enough
Runnin' your mouth, there ain't no doubt
Thought you were pretty tough
I remember all your dirty ways
You know my daddy didn't raise a fool
With friends like these I don't need no enemies
What's a man to do?
With a firestarer, you got trouble in sight
A firestarter, someday you're gonna see the light
You got no heart, you live your life
Never treated nobody right
Firestarter, tell me who you gonna burn tonight
I remember people like you
Even back in school
Stirrin' up trouble, got your mind in the gutter
Thought you were pretty cool
I remember what my daddy said
Said two-faced ain't the way
I can't see for the life of me
How you're standin' here today
With a firestarer, you got trouble in sight
A firestarter, some day you're gonna see the light
You got no heart, you live your life
Never treated nobody right
Firestarter, tell me who you gonna burn tonight
You know I've seen plenty like you
Trouble ain't enough
Runnin' your mouth, there ain't no doubt
Thought you were pretty tough
I remember all your dirty ways
You know daddy didn't raise a fool
With friends like these I don't need no enemies
What's a man to do?
With a firestarer, you got trouble in sight
A firestarter, some day you're gonna see the light
You ain't nothin' but a big time liar
Never treated nobody right
Firestarter, who the hell you gonna burn tonight

Mid-Night Oil
I have burned the mid-night oil
and my brain is weary.
I have burned the mid-night oil
and my eyes are teary.
Things look better in daytime.
The darkness brings on thought.
Problems become magnified
and you feel like you are caught
inside a darkened tunnel,
not able to find your way out.
If it wasn't for approaching daylight
you would live in doubt.
You'd doubt the thought inside your head
would ever go away.
You'd doubt the thought could disappear
in the light of day.
You'd doubt the thought could not return
and you'd burn the mid-night oil.
You'd doubt the thought that on the ensuing night
you'd burn the mid-night oil.

You Unpacked That Doubt
I thought,
You were mine.
I thought...
And thought,
Again.
And,
Each time...
I knew,
You...
Unpacked that doubt.
Even if I kept it real,
You...
Unpacked that doubt.
Even if I showed my love,
You...
Unpacked that doubt.
And I,
Need from you...
More than just memories.
But you...
Unpacked that doubt.
You...
Unpacked that doubt.
I thought,
You were mine.
I thought...
And thought,
Again.
And,
Each time...
I knew,
You...
Unpacked that doubt.
And I,
Wonder...
About,
What's loved.

Fool For You
You came into my life, I don't think that you meant to
You were standing in the doorway I was trying to walk through
Like an angel or a devil, I could never quite say
Doesn't matter anyway
[Refrain]
So, I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you
Open my heart and let the wind blow through
'Cause I'm a fool for you
Well, you can tell me anything and, honey, I'll believe
'Cause when you keep me hangin', it only feeds the dream
I never gonna reach you on that distant shore
But you still got me coming back for more
Oh, just let the wind blow through
But now the snow is fallin', all the roads are gone
The earth keeps movin' and I'm movin' on
I had so much to tell you but no words to say
It doesn't matter anyway
So, I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you
Open my heart and let the wind blow through
'Cause I'm a fool for you
Open my heart and let the rain fall through

Live As If You're Getting What It Is
Remove the 'maybe'
From the things you need.
Remove the 'maybe'
From dreams you want to see.
Remove the heartache,
From those setbacks.
Keep on trying.
Your wishes with those wants,
Will someday end that teasing.
Remove the 'maybe'
From hope and faith.
Do whatever that hardwork takes.
Remove the sadness from your smile.
And live as if you're getting what it is...
And it's tasty!
Remove the 'maybe'
From the things you need.
Remove the 'maybe'
From dreams you want to see.
Remove the heartache,
From those setbacks.
And live as if you're getting what it is...
And it's tasty!
Spiced the way you like it,
And tasty!

Accelerate It...And, Go!
Heated with a trivial steaming,
Choking up your motor on!
Sitting with your feelings overloading,
With your motor on!
Accelerate and go.
Roll down your windows,
And...
Let the air remove the fool in you.
Heated with a trivial steaming,
Choking up your motor on!
Sitting with your feelings overloading,
With your motor on!
Accelerate and go.
Roll down your windows,
And...
Let the air remove the fool in you.
Accelerate and go.
Roll down your windows,
And...
Let the air remove the fool in you.
Roll down your windows,
And...
Let the air remove the fool in you.
Heated with a trivial steaming,
Choking up your motor on!
Sitting with your feelings overloading,
With your motor on!
Roll down your windows,
And...
Let the air remove the fool in you.
Accelerate and go.
Roll down your windows,
And...
Let the air remove the fool in you.
Accelerate it...
And, go!
