flowers
wilder side
watching t.v.
sleeping
what’s going on
land of jam
what am i doing here
green mean team
rain queen
slowing down again
wishing
the cool fool
the plan
sailing
like i’m coming home (203)

the cool fool

1
i used to think
that you were cool
but now i know you're not
you're nothing more
than a stupid fool
whom i despise a lot
you may have
a lot of fans
following you around

10
but those same people
are in need of something
that they think they've found
time will come
it always does
eyes will open wide
then they will see
what you really are
you'll have no place to hide
so off you'll go

20
to another crowd
professing to be red hot
some will believe
that you really are
but most will see you're not
i'm so glad i have learned
the mistake
of my ways
i was young
and i admit

30
to being trapped in your maze
you prey upon
those who want
something more from life
but all you have
to give to them
is toil, trouble .. and strife
may i take
this time right now
to sing of your demise

40
you are probably
just as confused
and it will be a surprise
i don't want
anything
anymore to do with you
so look around
for someone else
you'll have to find someone new
so take your ego

50
and your tuning fork
i have no use for them
but be very careful
where you go
you may be out on a limb
i guess that's fine
it's better than
paying off your bail
cause someone
may come along

60
to take you off to jail

( repeat first 12 lines)
