Everyones Fool
I'm everyone's fool.
Like a dunce in the corner I just sit and drool.
Expected to fail, a stupid fool.
Everyone thinks me quite cowardly too.
I'm sick of all their empty words.
Lack of true encouragement truly burns.
Compared to the others I come in third.
They think I'll fail.
Their opinion of me is so pale.
I'm stuck inside this lonley jail.
I'm everyone's fool, I know quite well.
They'd rather put their stock in the rest of them.
I'm such a flawed and half assed gem.
The other two are clean and pure.
No problem there, that's for sure.
They treat me like I can't see their lies.
Like I'm too stupid to read their eyes.
'We truly believe that they are great, as for you not today.'
I'm far too stupid for such a gift.
Look here now a widening rift.
I'll soon be gone and give no thanks.
I have no reason to give them rank.
I will have done it all on my own.
They shouldn't even call me on the phone.
I don't need them now.
I won't need them then.
I'm nobodies fool.
I'm my own man

Too Much a Fool
Have I been over demanding,
With no love I show for you?
Well I...
Have been too much a fool.
Have I been misunderstanding,
And I prove that also too?
Well I...
Have been too much a fool.
There is no rhyme or reason,
Why...
I have been such a fool.
To not believe,
I...
Have been such a fool.
You can bring a horse to water,
But you can't teach it to drink.
And I...
Have been such a big fool.
I admit I can be stubborn,
And too old to learn new tricks!
But I...
Can admit I'm a fool.
Yes you...
Have seen me be a fool,
And stupid.

Fool Like You
I hear you breathing though youre so far away
Can you just go where youre going to
I couldnt give a damn or two about a fool like you
Thats true
Are you just too cool no youre just perfectly cold
And what goes around still comes around
I think its all summed up and down in a fool like you
Thats true
Today is just another day
You hold your ticket into nowhere
Its up to you if you will stay
And turn your day into a nightmare
You think you know it you think you know it all
But you dont even have a clue
And conrtol is still in view for a fool like you
Thats true
Is there a reason for the way that you are
Or does it just come natuarally
To have an idiosyncrasy and be a fool like you
Thats true
Youre hearing what you want to hear
Misunderstanding all you see
An attitude in all of us
Is it really you and me
Hes hiding residing deep within the crowd
A hand out hell pull you down
Youve been found guilty committed every crime
But still they say you must go free
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you fool like you
Thats true
By a fool like you by a fool like you
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
Thats true
By a fool like you by a fool like you
Looks like you by a fool like you
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
Thats true

I Was A Fool To Care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But I dont care even if I was a fool
Im still in love with you
Had I listened to the grapevine
I might have had my doubts
But I did my level best just to block them out
cause love is so unwise and love has no eyes
And it took a while for a fool to see
What his friends were on about
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But I dont care even if I was a fool
Im still in love with you
Imagining your face
It almost fills the empty space before me
I can see you eyes and almost hear your lovely lies
I wish I was an old man
And love was through with me
I wish I was a baby on my mamas knee
I wish I was a freight train moving down the line
Just keeping track of time
Without all these memories
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But I dont care even if I was a fool
Im still in love with you
Baby, yes, I am
I could have opened my eyes
I could have seen through your lies
I could have stood for no more
I could have walked out the door
But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care
But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care
You werent nothing but a fool to care; just a country fool to care.

What I've Heard
I've heard the things you say.
Behind my back the games you play.
To my face the sweetest gaze.
When I'm gone a slanderess attack.
You think me stupid,
crazy and ugly too.
Laughing at me till your face is blue.
You make fun of the way I look at you.
Saying I'm awesomely creepy too.
It's just love I tried to share with you.
Obviously I'm a retarded fool.
When I ask you of these things you've said.
In angers rush you turn bright red.
Telling me what you really meant.
How I misunderstand in discontent.
Deep inside I see your lies.
Instead though I'll just play my bit.
Of the stupid fool who's messed it up.
I'm tired of drinking from this cup.
You did it before.
You did it again.
I'll just remain here in this jam.
I'll continue on through this trash,
because I'm lonley and I need a freind like grip.

You Dont Fool Me
If I could see you would you still give me
Just hold me tighter and love me maybe
Youll be my thunder, I dont want saving
You dont fool me, oh no you dont fool me
One look at you its easy to see
Oh no you dont fool me, oh babe you dont fool me

You build me up now, you pull me down
You make me come on yeah, keep me around
Ill want to move you, I surely could
You dont fool me, oh no you dont fool me,
One look at you, its easy to see oh no
You dont fool me, oh babe you dont fool me,

Oh no you dont fool me, oh babe you dont fool me
Ill play along, just give it to me

Any Other Fool
(dianne warren)
I couldnt see paradise right before my eyes
When I had you here by my side
I didnt know that no-one else
Could ever take your place
But, now I know
I know that I should have stayed
And seeing you tonight
I only wonder why
I ever said goodbye
Any other fool would never walk away
Even a fool would still be there
Holding you
Any other fool would know I never
Should have let you go
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me, oh, ahh, oh
Anyone else never would have let the feeling die
Anyone else would have fought to keep it alive
If they were in my shoes
Theyd know the love we had
Was love too good to lose
Any other fool would never walk away
Even a fool would still be there
Holding you
Oh, any other fool would know
I never should have let you go
I had it all when you were loving me
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me, oh, oh, oh
I had it all when you were loving me
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me
Any other fool would never walk away
Even a fool would still be there
Holding you
Oh, any other fool would know
Never should have let you go
Had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me
Oh, oh, oh
Even a fool would still be there holding you
Any other fool would know
I never should have let you go
I had it all as any fool could see

Stupid
So sad to hear that you dont want to hang around with me
So lame to see you leave and to know that you believe that its over
Cause when your weak I feel the need to get underneith your skin
And when you start to tweak I find a way to get up beside you
Stupid, stupid, stupid
Stupid, stupid, stupid
In time youll learn to love me as much as you love yourself
Oh in time youll learn to hate me
Cause when I feel the need to have you back by my side
I am sweet it makes me sick to know that I can be so blind
Stupid, stupid, stupid
Stupid, stupid, stupid
Stupid, stupid, stupid
Stupid, stupid, stupid

I Ran Away
One, two, three... Will... (drum intro)
I ran away from you
Thats all I ever do
And though I started here
I ran away from you
Im gonna come on in
And see it through
I ran away from you
Thats all I ever do
And when I heard you call
Come back to me
I know I should stay
I dont have the stomach to
Everyone I know says
Im a fool to mess with you
Everyone I know says
its a stupid thing to do
I have your love on call
And yet my day is so full
There might be nothing left to do
So I ran away from you
Im gonna come on in
My eyes are closed
I can feel it there
The suns so close
Im gonna come on out
And burn the sky
A star arose in my own cage
Im stuck in life and in a cage
Just a single star
I sing for
Everyone I know
says Im a fool mess with you
Everyone I know
says its a stupid thing to do
I have your love on call
And yet my day is so full
And I did not know what to do
So I ran away from you

Stupid
Honestly, I like the word
Stupid,
I like you calling me
Stupid
In all the stupid things
That you think
I do
Which I think are
Stupid too,
Stupid!
Stupid makes me feel
That I am
Non-stupid
That I am nobody
That I am not
Like you calling me
Stupid
That I am not like you
That I am not
Alone
That I have no reason
To be sad
That confusion is not
A disease
That we all belong to one
Beautiful world
Stupid!
That is enough
Heaven for me.

Fool For Your Love
All through the lonesome night I tossed and I turned
Lost in these dreams of you since the day I learned
How could you give yourself to another man
A fool for your love, fool for your love.
Fool for your love.
Look how your eyes have changed, all the love has gone
Where did I lose you babe, what did I do wrong
How could you give yourself to another man
Im a fool for your love, fool for your love.
Fool for your love.
Now you wont say goodbye,
But you dont want to stay
I never thought that i
Would lose you this way.
A fool for your love.
All through the lonesome night I tossed and I turned
Lost in these dreams of you since the day I learned
How could you give yourself to another man
A fool for your love, fool for your love.
Fool for your love.
A fool for your love, I hold on your love.
Im just a fool in love with you.
Im a fool, fool for your love
Im just a fool for your love
Im a fool for you.

Carousel
she can't hide no matter how hard she tries
her secret disguised behind the lies
and at night she crys away her pride
with eyes shut tight staring at her inside
all her friends know why she can't sleep at night
all her family asking is she alright
all she wants to do is get rid of this hell
well all she's got to do is stop kiddin herself
she can only fool herself for so long [x3]
are you too weak to face me?
(she can only fool herself)
[chorus]
i never know just why you run so far away far away from me [x2]
when it comes to how to live his life and can't be told
says he got everything under control
thinks he knows he's not a problem he's stuck with
but in reality it would be a problem to just quit
an addict and he can't hold the reigns
the pain is worse cause his friends have it the same
trys to slow down the problem he's got
but can't get off the carousel untill he makes it stop
he can only fool himself for so long [x3]
are you too weak to face me?
(he can only fool himself)

Try to fly with the wings I gave you

Her Best Friend
He left a message on her voicemail
She saved it and she listens
She listens and burns.
She is a fool
Such a fool!
An innocent knee
Pressed against hers
Sets her alight where they touch
She is a fool
Such a fool
She listens to his beautiful words,
And lets them flow to the middle of her heart,
As she stares at the base of his throat.
She is a fool,
Such a fool
As soon as he leaves her
She feels a universe of hidden sentiments
Descend upon her tongue
She is a fool,
Because...because....
She shares him with so many just like her,
And she's the easy target amongst them all.
Alas...he'll have her gentle heart forever,
Because she is a fool
Only a fool.

Sonnet: The Fool
Who would prefer to hit the ball same side?
Who loves to accept defeat without fight?
Who would knowing rules, by them not abide?
Who would prefer darkness to that of light?
Who would give birth and try to kill one's child?
Who would betray his master who feeds him?
Who prefers severe punishment to mild?
Who would want life to turn gloomy and grim?
A fool will keep his body, mind, unclean!
A fool will risk his life for stupid things;
A fool may think, he can do sin unseen;
A fool self-praises his follies and sings!
Who would dare climb an electrified fence?
Who would not pay heed to his common-sense?

I Was A Fool (To Let You Go)
Music: Barry Manilow
Lyrics: Marty Panzer
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After I've had my last cigarette
When the night is as black as the night's gonna get
Well, I'm still wide awake cause I still can't forget
I was a fool to let you go
And after I've closed the bar with the boys
Tho I can't stand the drinks and I can't stand the noise
When I know I'll be back 'cause there's no other choice
I know I was a fool to let you go
I was a fool to think
That I could sleep a wink
In this big empty bed by myself
And I was a fool to wait
Until it was too late
To tell you just how I felt
And after I've been with somebody new
And she knows what to say
Ah but not what to do
Then I know what I've lost and I know it's so true
I know I was a fool to let you go
And after I've been with somebody new
And she knows what to say
Ah but not what to do
Then I know what I've lost and I know it's so true
When I see what it cost and what I'm goin' thru
I know I was a fool
I was a fool to let you go

Fool To Think
Look at me dreaming of you
All I could hope is to have you
To have you walking with me
Laughing so in love, we two
Almost drunkenly
I did imbibe of this
Fantasy of you and me
Was I a fool to think?
The way you looked at me
I swear you did
But you looked away too quick
Was I a fool, was I a fool to think
That you would take me home
As if I was yours
Was I a fool to think at all?
Ive grown tired of love
You are the trouble with me
I watch you walk right by
I smile, you do not notice me
Treat me recklessly
All you do is toss me pennies out
But the silence in me is screaming
Wont you come and get me?
Was I a fool to think?
The way you looked at me
I swear you did
But you looked away too quick
Was I a fool, was I a fool to think
That you would take me home
As if I was yours
Was I a fool to think at all?
Was I a fool to think?
The way you looked at me
I swear you did
But you looked away too quick
Was I a fool, was I a fool to think
That you would take me home
As if I was yours
Was I a fool to think at all?
You make a mess of me here
I dance a thousand steps for you
If you say yes to me
Ill be whatever gets you through
You make a mess of me here (was I a fool? )
I dance a thousand steps for you (was I a fool? )
Was I a fool, was I a fool to think?
Am I a fool, am I a fool for you?
