Paroles
[Verse 1]
Poor fool
Poor fool
Poor fool
Poor fool
[Verse 2]
He's worked for minimum wage, even survived the dole
But he doesn't owe a penny to a living soul, poor fool
He doesn't drive a big car or wear designer clothes
He tries hard to save a little, but a little soon goes, poor fool
[Verse 3]
And any millionaire would tell him he should forget his foolish pride
And take the whole world for a ride, but he's a fool, poor fool
He's a fool, poor fool
[Verse 4]
Poor fool
Poor fool
Poor fool
Poor fool
[Verse 5]
He'd never steal from you, he wouldn't tell you a lie
Even people who don't like him say he's straight as a die, poor fool
He always pays all his bills, his tax is P-A-Y-E
There's no plastic in his pocket, only paper money, poor fool
[Verse 6]
And the bankers, they would tell him he should forget his foolish pride
And take the whole world for a ride, but he's a fool, poor fool
He's a fool, poor fool
[Verse 7]
Poor fool
Poor fool
Poor fool
Poor fool
[Verse 8]
Never a borrower be, he learned that way back in school
And now you can't get educated if you don't read that rule, poor fool
He did his best for his boys, but they're so different to him
They already owe a fortune and they're not yet men, poor fool
[Verse 9]
And Mister Know-it-all would tell him he should forget his foolish pride
And take the whole world for a ride, but he's a fool, poor fool
He's a fool, poor fool
[Verse 10]
Poor fool
And any millionaire would tell him he's a fool, poor fool
And the bankers, they would tell him he's a fool, poor fool
And Mister Know-it-all would tell him he's a fool, poor fool
[Verse 11]
He's a fool, he's a fool, he's a fool, he's a fool (Poor fool)
He's a fool, he's a fool, he's a fool, he's a fool (Poor fool)
He's a fool, he's a fool, he's a fool, he's a fool (Poor fool)
He's a fool, he's a fool, he's a fool, he's a fool (Poor fool)
He's a fool
