lyrics

THE FOOL
© 2004

I guess I should just grab my coat and head on home
but I never could leave well enough alone
I’ve played the victim and I’ve played it cool
and I have followed almost every single rule

But now I have stumbled into this seedy part of town
and I’ve gotten lost wandering around
But I have learned to reap what I have sown
I just cover up my tracks and hit the road


I guess I should just grab my things and leave this place,
but not till I’m damned sure that you have seen my face,
I’ve played the martyr and I’ve played by the rules
And I wrote the book on playing the fool

And somehow I wound up in this wretched part of town
And I’m walking in circles all around
But I have learned to reap what I have sown
I just cover up my tracks and hit the road

Solo

I’m packing up my toys and I am outta here
Won’t play this crazy game no more cause no one’s playing fair
I’ve been a good girl, guess that makes me a fool
Who ever said that to be kind you must be cruel

I have overstayed my welcome, been too long in this place
and now the time has come for me to drop out of this race
I have learned to reap all that I have sown
I just cover up my tracks and hit the road
