Fool

Chock-a-block with riches you try to focus

But no one ever comprehends

Multitudes of carats, sparks, magic dust

But behind the mass: a dead end

---

Then everything is shaken up

Every bone is breaking up

I’ll take this news to the high up, you fool

---

Back in time you traveled, you forgot this city

Your conscience was lost at sea

Unduly tidal waves they never listen to a word you say

When you beg for your sanity

---

Everything is foaming up

The motorways are jamming up

I’ll take this news to the high up you fool

Chorus 1

Someday you’ll get what is coming

You’re in pain? This is nothing

A dull ache, a slight stinging

You’re alive at any rate … alive at any rate

---

Smoke curls on the water, silver phantom

I can barely comprehend

Unduly tidal waves refuse to listen

And sweep away your sanity

---

Everything is shaken up

Every bone is breaking up

I’ll take this news to the high up, you fool

Chorus 2

Someday you’ll understand something

Until that time you keep on breaking

Teeth will bite you’ll be forsaken

But alive all the same

Chorus 1

Someday you'll get what is coming...

---

(I'll take this news to the high up, you fool)

(I'll take this news to the high up, you fool)

I’m fading to a thousand faces (I'll take this news to ...)

No one is left to save your neck (the high up...you fool.)

And, oh, now I know I’m better off (I'll take this news to the high up...you fool)

Yet still from me a lonely sigh (I''ll take this news to the high up...)

Does it come as a surprise (you fool...)

For you? All I need is a mind to make
