Hey - Just when you think you are the shit
|
Well, you look down and your fly is unzipped
|
That's when you take a moment to say,
|
"Well, sometimes I'm so totally unhip."
|
Just when the great ones inspire you
|
To throw caution to the wind
|
That's when the mirror mirror on the wall says,
|
"Babe, you better throw your towel in."
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
All that I don't know
|
Paralyzes me
|
But somehow I keep going on
|
Just settling for this mediocrity
|
And I wonder if god is trying to make a fool out of me
|
[repeat]
|
[repeat]
|
|
There are legends who die
|
And I've never even heard their songs
|
And there are heroes of a generation
|
Whose poetry is not on my shelf
|
And my soliloquies would make Shakespeare
|
Turn over in his grave
|
And voyagers would forbid me
|
To join in their crusade
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I wish I could fight against Ali and win
|
I wish I could write with Joni Mitchell's pen
|
Sail the Atlantic on a paddle boat
|
I wish I could smile like Bobby de Niro
|
I wish that the lotto was the number of my telephone
|
I wish I could sing a duet with Bono
|
'Cause I don't want to sound like
|
Anyone else, you know
|
I just wanna take you under my spell
|
Excuse me for saying
|
What I know down deep is my sin
|
But maybe I'll fool everybody into thinking
|
I know just what I am doing
|
|
[Chorus]
|

Fool Out Of Me
