The Dodos - Fools Lyrics
Our fathers have been entangled in thingsHe's been squandering, he's been squanderingAnd we don't do a thing, 'cause we're busy and thinkWe're just wandering, we're just a-wandering like foolsHis son is his prize, he tells a few liesHe's got his father's eyes, it's in his father's eyesAnd he thinks in his mind that he's just getting byBut he's a compromise, he's just a compromising foolAnd the stance that we take isn't much to bearYeah, we leave things to change on their timeAnd our failure to care for it leaves us blind'til we're tired and we're crazed in the mindNow he lies on his back, and they tell him it's thatIt's just a heart attack, it's just a heart attackToo late to return to the ones that you've earnedNo they don't give it back, no they don't give it back to foolsAnd the stance that we take isn't much to bearYeah, we leave things to change on their timeAnd our failure to care for it leaves us blind'til we're tired and we're crazed in the mindI've been, I've been silent
