Everybody Plays the Fool lyrics

Ok, so your heart is broken 

You're sitting around mopin', 

Mopin', mopin', cryin', cryin' 

You say you're even thinking about dying 

Well, before you do anything rash, 

Baby, listen to this

Everybody plays the fool, sometime 

There's no exception to the rule, listen baby 

It may be factual, it may be cruel, 

I ain't lying 

Everybody plays the fool

Fallin' in love is such an easy thing to do 

But there's no guarantee that 

The one you love, is gonna love you 

Oh, loving eyes they cannot see 

A certain person could never be 

Love runs deeper than any ocean, 

It clouds you're mind with emotion

Everybody plays the fool, sometime 

There's no exception to the rule, listen baby 

It may be factual, it may be cruel, 

I ain't lying 

Everybody plays the fool

How can you help it, 

When the music starts to play 

And your ability to reason, is swept away 

Oh, heaven on earth is all you see, 

You're out of touch with reality 

And now you cry, but when you do, 

Next time around someone cries for you

Hey, everybody plays the fool, sometime 

Use your heart just like a tool, listen baby 

They never tell you so in school, 

I want to say it again, 

Everybody plays the fool

Everybody plays the fool, sometime 

There's no exception to the rule, listen baby 

It may be factual, it may be cruel, 

I ain't lying 

Everybody plays the fool

Every plays the fool, sometime 

There's no exception to the rule, listen baby 

It may be factual, it may be cruel, 

I want to say it again 

Everybody plays the fool
