I never really want to see the day
Where I grow old
I never want to lose ambition
Oh, well so I'm told
I never want to think off this thought of train
I'm just following my dream
The world they call me insane
'Cause I'm a little bit oh different
than the rest of us
Never studied after school so I'm the stupid one
I'm struggling with money
So I'm not a success
I want to travel the world
Not pay off somebody's debt

'Cause I'm a fool
I'm a fool
that's what I'm told, Yeah
I'm a fool
It's what I do
'Cause I'm a fool
That's what I'm told, Yeah

I'm a fool
To her? To him? To who?
You're running out of reasons
I'm just trying to be true, oh

'Cause I'm a fool
I'm a fool
That's what I'm told, Yeah!

Why you looking at me like I'm a bum
on the street?
I'm just busking man
I'm singing, chasing after my dream
I don't drink much
And that's a choice I choose and
I'll keep choosing
They tell me that I'm losing
And I'm on a losing spree
I've never considered giving up
What I believe in
Although it leaves me breathless
And I stop breathing
Inside I'm left screaming
And my demons become a friendly figure
But I can't see them
Does that mean if
I don't believe in them
Then they'll finally be leaving?

'Cause I'm a fool
I'm a fool
that's what I'm told, Yeah
I'm a fool
It's what I do
'Cause I'm a fool
That's what I'm told, Yeah

I'm a fool
To her? To him? To who?
You're running out of reasons
I'm just trying to be true, oh

'Cause I'm a fool
I'm a fool
That's what I'm told, Yeah!

Midnight
You'll contemplate what they all say
And the centre of your heart could fade away
The centre
Is where our dreams belong
So keep on keeping on
'Cause keeping on
Is where dreams are made

(2x) Foolish behaviour
But I'll entertain you
So you're entertained by a fool
not a saviour
To those who are with me
and here by my side
When I count my blessings
I counted you twice

'Cause I'm a fool
I'm a fool
that's what I'm told, Yeah
I'm a fool
It's what I do
'Cause I'm a fool
That's what I'm told, Yeah

I'm a fool
To her? To him? To who?
You're running out of reasons
I'm just trying to be true, oh

'Cause I'm a fool
I'm a fool
That's what I'm told, Yeah!

I'm a fool
'Cause I'm a fool
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Yeah!
I'm a fool

'Cause no one's heart beats the same
So if your heart is different don't be ashamed
You only get one chance at life
So dance to the beat of your heart
And you'll be alright
Be a fool, and not a lie
