We Had Them Fooled
It was almost too easy
A spotlight not to step in
But keeping them in the dark
I swear was never our intention
Well either way they missed the sunset
So once that breaking news hit
They must've felt like a bunch of idiots
They thought we were still happy
They thought we were fine
Their judgment was at worst we were just
Goin' through a rough time
Their judgment was overruled
Yeah we had them all fooled
Each one and all fooled
It would've been a riot
If it hadn't been a crisis
For the looks on all their
Poor dumbfounded faces
It was priceless
They'd really thought
We'd still got that love, babe
They'd really thought I's lovable
How can anybody be so gullible
They caught us once praying
They thought we'd been blessed
Everybody guessed at worst
God just assigned us some test
Now everybody's been schooled
Yeah we had them all fooled
Good guys and dolls fooled
Then again, I sense a few of you
Who somehow knew you knew
This fairy tale was too good to be true
I think the thoughts had crossed your mind
I feel you felt it in your guts
Well it would have been awfully nice
If you'd bothered telling us
When you saw our flags flying
When you heard us ring our bells
For the only people who we fooled
Even more than you was ourselves
So although you may still be mad that
We hid the cracks in that old shell
Forgive us, fools, 'cause we fools
Now need your help
Should we feel guilty or should we feel proud
Masters of deception or just dumb as all get out
Was it clever or cruel
That we had them all fooled
Me and you all fooled
A spotlight not to step in
But keeping them in the dark
I swear was never our intention
Well either way they missed the sunset
So once that breaking news hit
They must've felt like a bunch of idiots
They thought we were still happy
They thought we were fine
Their judgment was at worst we were just
Goin' through a rough time
Their judgment was overruled
Yeah we had them all fooled
Each one and all fooled
It would've been a riot
If it hadn't been a crisis
For the looks on all their
Poor dumbfounded faces
It was priceless
They'd really thought
We'd still got that love, babe
They'd really thought I's lovable
How can anybody be so gullible
They caught us once praying
They thought we'd been blessed
Everybody guessed at worst
God just assigned us some test
Now everybody's been schooled
Yeah we had them all fooled
Good guys and dolls fooled
Then again, I sense a few of you
Who somehow knew you knew
This fairy tale was too good to be true
I think the thoughts had crossed your mind
I feel you felt it in your guts
Well it would have been awfully nice
If you'd bothered telling us

When you heard us ring our bells
For the only people who we fooled
Even more than you was ourselves
So although you may still be mad that
We hid the cracks in that old shell
Forgive us, fools, 'cause we fools
Now need your help
Should we feel guilty or should we feel proud
Masters of deception or just dumb as all get out
Was it clever or cruel
That we had them all fooled
Me and you all fooled
