Fool's Fancy 歌詞

The bobby was bent from the beat and the bedlam He wished that he could have the silence of a dead man His body will shake and his spirit will totter As he thinks about the waste and stares down at the water It's a fool's fancy, wrap up all his expectations Tie them in a concrete sack, life passes before his eyes He'd like to pass it back, it's a fool's fancy There's a bouncing boy there who wears a face without expression That tells of his own sadness and unearned depression He couldn't give a cent for a worn out copper He's never spent that much, he's a weekend window shopper It's a fool's fancy, wrap up all his expectations Tie them in a concrete sack (Tie them in a concrete sack), life passes before his eyes He'd like (He'd like to) to pass (He'd like to) it back (To pass it back) It's a fool's fancy Get out the gilded girls who do not have the ability To fake cultivation or counterfeit humility Hold both your ears and listen to a battery Of rough exaggeration and self-flattery Some girls will sweat when they think about their make-up An egotist won't give out if there is no chance to take up Don't jump to your conclusion if the doubt is within reason The air held him awhile and the water was freezing It's a fool's fancy, wrap up all his expectations Tie them in a concrete sack (Tie them in a concrete sack), life passes before his eyes He'd like (He'd like to) to pass (He'd like to) it back (To pass it back) It's a fool's fancy It's a fool's fancy (It's a fool's fancy) It's a fool's fancy
