Ark - It Takes A Fool To Remain Sane Lyrics
Whatever happened to the funky race?A generation lost in pace,-Wasn't life supposed to be more than this?In this kiss I'll change your bore for my blissBut let go of my hand and it will slip outin the sand if you don't give me the chanceto break down the walls of attitude,I ask nothing of younot even your gratitudeAnd if you think I'm cornythen it will not make me sorryit's your right to laugh at meand in turn, that's my opportunityto feel braveBecause ridicule is no shameit's just a way to eclipse hateit's just a way to put my back starightit's just a way to remain saneEvery morning I would see her gettingoff the bus the picture never dropsit's like a multicoloured snapshot stuck in my brainit kept me sane for a couple of yearsas it drenched my fearsof becoming like the otherswho become unhappy mothersand fathers of unhappy kidsAnd why is that?'Cause they've forgotten how to playor maybe they're afraid to feel ashamedto seem strangeto seem insaneto gain weightto seem gay- I tell you this:That it takes a fool to remain saneOh It takes a fool to remain saneOh It takes a fool to remain saneOh In this world all covered up in shame(-Oh, take it to the stage!)So, take it to the stage in a multicolouredjacket take it jackpot, crackpot,strutting like a pea*****nailvarnish Arkansasshimmy-shammy featherboah crackpot haircutdye your hair in glowing red and blue,-Do, Do, Do! What you wanna do, Don't think twice,do what you have to do,Do, Do, Do, Do, let your heart decidewhat you have to do that's all there is to findCause it takes a fool to remain sane,Oh It takes a fool to remain saneOh In this world all covered up in shameOh It takes a fool to remain sane,Oh It takes a fool to remain saneOh It takes a fool to remain saneOh In this world all covered up in shame-Oh, it takes a fool!..
