It took a while before I figured it out
The way the girls talk, it’s all over school
I stuck around through all of my doubt
But then you went and you broke the golden rule
Ooh, you know I play the fool
Ooh, you know I play the fool
Well I’m a man and a man’s got his pride
The way the boys talk, it’s all over school
I got inside you when you took me for a ride
You were the machine and I was the tool
Ooh, you know I play the fool
Ooh, you know I play the fool
Ooh, you know I play the fool
Yeah play the fool
Ooh, you know I play the fool
Ooh, you know I play the fool
Ooh, you know I play the fool
I play the fool, I play the fool, play the fool
