Fool

I tell myself Not to be a fool It comes so naturally to me It's all I'll ever be I tell myself To grow up, get serious And all I want to be Is an animal that's free I tell myself It's not safe in my head And that's where I'm gonna be Every day until I'm dead I tell myself Come on and hit the big score I only get myself banged up When I think I'm needing more There's a little girl Sitting in the back seat Watching me everyday I'm trying to listen To what she tells me She knows that I am afraid Then she says Go do it anyways I tell myself I'm not good, not good enough Now I'm studying up How not to treat me so rough I'll tell myself Just about anything But I don't have to believe Everything I say to me There's a little girl Sitting in the back seat She really knows how to play I'm trying to listen To what she tells me To show my love I'm afraid And then she says Go do it anyway Go do it anyway Go do it anyway Go do it anyway I tell myself Not to be a fool And all I want to be Is an animal that's free There's a little girl Sitting in the back seat She really knows how to play I'm trying to listen To what she tells me To show my love I'm afraid And then she says Go do it anyway Go do it anyway Go do it anyway Go do it anyway Go do it anyway Go do it anyway Go do it anyway Go do it anyway
