lyrics

Fool

All the ghosts of the grandmothers
Have been haunting me in my living room
I am pagan in my pondering
Wondering where it is I will go, if I don’t go here

And the streets are full of beggars
Bragging threats of misdemeanors
I am shirtless in my offerings
To be more than what you want from me

Say it ain’t so, say it ain’t so
Say it aint, say it ain’s so

And the creatures in their masks and capes
Are growing restless under costume makeup
I am wise to what we’re doing here, but I’m a fool
Standing naked and dressed as myself

Say it ain’t so, say it ain’t so
Say it aint, say it ain’s so

I will keep my eyes shut, I will, I will
I will build a time machine
Travelin’ back to kings and queens
Changing all the course of history
So these things I’ve done won’t make a fool out of me

All the children at the swimming pool
Offer their bare skin to the afternoon
And in the courtyard birds are caroling
In the fountains that man made for them

Say it ain’t so, say it ain’t so
Say it aint, say it ain’s so
That I am cursed and insignificant
Thinking all the world revolves around me
