New Fool, Same as the old one

 

Niceties fade

Sure as love degrades

Us in many cruel ways

It is sad

But it is true

 

Chorus:

 

New Fool

Same as the old one

The new fool is me

I was fooled by you

Boo Hoo

 

Love is a many splintered thing

It bristles, cuts the skin

It is all the rage these days

To be dumb and cool

I was a fool

Fooled by you

 

Shot through with rage

A rat in a cage

Smashing pumpkins too

Never was a band for you

 

Chorus:

 

New Fool

Same as the old one

The new fool is me

I was fooled by you

Boo Hoo
