FOOL

(Pete Wain)

I've got to talk to you, I know there's something on your mind
'cause baby, you been treating me so bad
It's not like you to be unkind
Has too much thinking got you down again
Well don't be a fool to yourself

I've got to talk to you, I know there's something I must say
'cause baby, I can see you've been misled
By the words I must have said
Well, too much talking never done me proud
Oh I'm just a fool to myself
And to everybody else

  So don't go believing in me
  Responsibility is something I've never had, I guess I never will
  Too much drinking and joking and smoking and taking too much for granted

  Yes that's me alright, yes that's me alright
  So don't blame yourself for something
  When that something is me, and it's me alright

I've got to talk to you, I've got to set the record straight
'cause baby, I can't see you take the blame
I'm the one who should feel the pain
When too much drinking brings me down on my luck again
And I'm a fool to myself and to everybody else, so

  Don't go believing in me
  Responsibility is something that I've never had, I guess I never will
  Too much drinking and joking and smoking and taking too much for granted

  Yes that's me alright, yes that's me alright
  So don't blame yourself for something when that something is me
  No don't blame yourself for something when that something is realy me
  And it's me alright and I want to talk to you
  Oh yes it's me alright, got to, got to talk to you
  Oh, yes it's me alright, I'm just everybody's fool
  That's right
