Beautiful Little Fool

Do you know what I did when my baby was born?
You don't, because no one was there
My baby was maybe an hour old
And Tom was God knows where
Coming out of the ether, my head full of smoke
"It's a girl," the nurse said
And I broke
I broke

Do you know what I did when my baby was born?
When I found out that she was a she?
I prayed that my beautiful child would be the fool
That I could never be

Let my girl be a fool, to whom it won't occur
That the choices she makes, in this life are never hers
Never hеrs, never hers

Thе best thing a girl can be in this world
Is a beautiful little fool
The best thing a girl can be in this world
Is a beautiful little fool
The best thing a girl can be in this world
Is charming and blithe
And polished, reposed
An absolute rose
And a fool
