A Fool Says
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
[Hogarth:]
A fool
Says love is like a melody
Or something like a symphony
But this is cacophony
Never changing key
We
We can't fool our audience
We put up such a poor pretense
Don't hide a shred of evidence
We have no defense
[Woodland Creatures:]
A fool says
Love is foolproof
[Hogarth:]
A fool says...
We
We can't fool our audience
We put up such a poor pretense
Don't hide a shred of evidence
We have no defense
[Woodland Creatures:]
A fool says
Love is foolproof
