Clive Gregson - Play the Fool lyrics

Artist: Clive Gregson

album: Strange Persuasions


Growing up was easy, it all happened so fast,
Playing cards till dawn and missing school,
They broke the mould when I was born, but
Still the dye was cast,
I will always play the fbol...
Stepping out on the dance floor of some cheap hotel,
The local hero murders "Don't Be Cruel,"
Arrivederci Roma, good intentions fare thee well,
I will always play the fool...
Lying on a bed of nails in some stranger's arms,
If this were the exception, not the rule,
After half a million warnings and a thousand faIse alarms,
I still always play the fool...
As long as there's no reason, ne dignity, no sense,
As long as there is some unwritten rule,
While I get away with murder and call it selfdefence,
I wiil always play the fool...
How I wish I had a dollar for every drunken night,
For every minute stuck on some bar stool
For eyery time that I was wrong and swore black was white,
For one more chance to play the fool...
Growing up was easy, it all happened so fast,
Playing cards till dawn and missing school,
They broke the mould when I was born but still the dye was cast,
I will always play the fool...
