When you're down and out you find out who your true friends are.

Pity The Fool

VERSE 1:

I guess

You probably

Pity The Fool

That I have become

It’s a shame just how well

my lovely life came undone

I’ll never have respect

So I get your sympathy

And while you

Pity The Fool

I’ll wish it wasn’t me

 

VERSE 2:

I know you’ve

Heard it all before

And you knew better somehow

I guess you’re stronger than me

Even though I walk away now

I’ll save you from myself

And wish it wasn’t true

And while you

Pity The Fool

Be glad it wasn’t you

 

BRIDGE:

No one likes a quitter

Everyone hates a hater

Take care of yourself

So you’ll have less regret later

I’ll cherish your memory

I’ll unwind you from my spool

Just blame it all on me

And have pity on a fool

 

VERSE 3:

I bet you

Look back on this

And grin just a little bit

I hope I brought something

To your table that was somewhat legit

I’ll move on to the next shore

And pretend it never happened

And you can

Pity The Fool

Who went over the deep end

For you.
