You were in the right And I was the fool I'm just not too bright as a general rule So have some compassion I'm not what you see Not even a fool like me Well I had it coming But I couldn't have known I paid no attention To the goings on And a sad situation Is as sad as it can be For even a fool like me Call me the fool I'm listening Show me you understand Show me the things I'm missing Call me the fool I am Well I've been mistaken For most of my days And lately I'm aching Just to change my ways And the prodigal's yearning Is easy to see In even a fool like me Call me the fool I'm listening Show me you understand Show me the things I'm missing Call me the fool I am
