Act The Fool

I don't wanna fight tonight, at least not with you
So stay cool
Yeah the day's not over yet, that's just your point of view
Take it from me

Today I'm feeling awful, thanks for asking
Walking round the city with my head in a basket
You can pull me down, but you can't shut me up
Tonight we'll scratch around, until our debts are paid off
Act the Fool
Act the Fool
Act the Fool
Act the Fool

The pencilled lines they use to keep us in the margins
If you come looking for advice I'll start charging
Ahead and straight at you
Does anyone know what to do?
The world is ablaze while we're stuck in a maze,
Reaching for the only way out
"Don't be afraid
It's what they make us do, act The Fool"

These days I'm feeling nothing, thanks for asking
Smoke a pack of 20, sizing up for a casket
You can and will complain, but you can't make me change
I'm a wage slave, how much will it compensate?
Act the Fool
Act the Fool
Act the Fool
Act the Fool

Oh god she's leaving you
Act the fool
Oh god your bills are due
Act the fool

Today I'm feeling lucky, thanks for asking
I'm getting out the city, moving into a snake pit
You can sit me down, but you can't shut me up
Oh no you can't come round, the doors have been pulled shut
Act the fool
Act the fool
Act the fool
Act the fool

Oh god she's leaving you
Oh god she's leaving you
