Well I waited and I waited up at day and night Thinking that my phone would ring. But you never gave me a second thought H And told all your friends about me. Yes you told them all about what a clown I was And how you had me on the end of a string Now I got a title for which I?m known H And that?s the Fool of the Century Ref. Well you seem so close But just out of reach I?m always chasing something down the road H And it?s way too late, I?ve shoulda learned my lesson A long long time ago. But now no matter where I wander All over town I can hear them laughing at me Yes they all whisper when I walk by: H ?There goes the fool of the century? Solo (1x Ref.) Well I tried my best to look like happy-hie With your first class company But they all looked at me in disbelieve And didn?t take me seriously Well now I followed you around for a long long time Practically down on my knees Then they all sent me to the head of the class As the fool of the century. Ref. H Yes, the fool of the century H Mmmh, the fool of the century! {Thanks to [email protected] for tabs}
