Fool to myself

I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself

To think that you were mine, I never thought you'd be so wild

You played around with everyone anytime at all

I thought you were bein' friendly when you took them home to tea

I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself

I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself

When I used to ring you & you said you were ill in bed

I should've realized, yes you were ill but in your head

There's only one thing left for me to say, it's this, my friend:

I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself

I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself

Life, I know, is not a dream

A dream of your A T

But must you go & try to make some kind of monkey out of me?

If this life you're livin' suits your temperament & your face

I'm ever tryin' to change it, I will leave you in disgrace

There's only one thing left for me to say, it's this, my friend:

I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself

I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
