Fool

I'm tripping over shoes of black and blue
Bending over and backwards too
Some definition of insanity
Is what got me the interview

Say something stupid and my act just bombs
There's no rehearsal just forget it, can we please move on?
No intermission, just the bitter end
Don't bother to attend

And watch me fumble through the same routine
You know it's cruel, oh no
So you won't see me playing for a queen
'Cause I'm tired of being the fool
The fool
The fool

Do I have to play the villain again?
I guess I'm dying at the end (You don't know by now)
Even after when the curtain drops
I'm still wiping the blood from my hands (You should know by now)

I need a break from this tragedy
Get me someone to work with that'll work with me
It's getting lonely at the bitter end
No more of this pretend

And watch me fumble through the same routine
You know it's cruel, oh no
So you won't see me playing for a queen
'Cause I'm tired of being the fool

See me smile, see me frown
Pick myself up from the ground
Just to do it all again like I'm some clown
See me smile, see me frown
Pick myself up from the ground
Just to build myself back up and break me down
Yeah

And watch me stumble through the same old scene
I play it cool, oh no
But you won't see me playing for a queen
'Cause I'm tired of being the fool
Yeah, I'm so tired of being the fool
I said I'm tired of being the fool
The fool
The fool
