Fool Lyrics

these clever phrases you made up
made up and memorized
memorized
you pretend you’re well-read
but everyone knows the truth
knows the truth

~fool (x2)

way too caught up in yourself
you run while the others walk
while the others talk
at your feet lies a pearl
the key to your everything
your tragedy

when the preacher shuts his books
and speaks straight from his heart
you suddenly see all
suddenly feel all

as the four winds get a hold
of every bone you own
you suddenly see her
suddenly feel her

these clever phrases you made up
made up and memorized
memorized
you pretend you’re well read
but everyone knows the truth
knows the truth

when the preacher shuts his books
and speaks straight from his heart
you suddenly see all
suddenly feel all

as the four winds get a hold
of every bone you own
you suddenly see her
suddenly feel her

when the preacher shuts his books
and speaks straight from his heart
you suddenly see all
suddenly feel all

as the four winds get a hold
of every bone you own
you suddenly see her
suddenly feel her

~fool (x2)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
