Lyrics
April Fools
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.
Oh what a shame that your pockets did bleed on St. Valentine's
And you sat in a chair thinking: "Boy I'm such a Prince!"
Well life's a train that goes from February on day by day
But it's making a stop on April first.
And you will believe in love
And all that it's supposed to be
But just until the fish start to smell
And you're struck down by a hammer
Sure you were swift when the handsome Greek boys dropped by withgifts
You are suave thanks to ribbons that opened sesame
But in the stars and closer to home in every planet
It ain't hard for me and dear JoJo to see
That you will believe in love
And all that it's supposed to be
But just until the fish start to smell
And you're struck down by a hammer
So let it all go by looking at the sky
Wondering if there are clouds in hell
And you will believe in love
And all that it's supposed to be
Yes you will believe in love
And you will believe in love
And all that it's supposed to be
Yes you will believe in love
But you will believe in love
And all that it's supposed to be
Yes you will believe in love
And you will believe in love
And all that it's supposed to be
Yes you will believe in love
