Lyrics

Uh-whoa, uh-whoa, uh-whoa Yeah, yeah Fool's paradise Wasn't very nice People living in the world for material things Lovers a play for hearts That's where the hatred starts Causin' harm and replacin' the joy true love can bring It's just a fool's paradise It's just a fool's paradise Wasn't very nice Uh-whoa, uh-whoa, uh-whoa Yeah, yeah (You don't know) Just like a concrete dream Fool's paradise is strange People buying time don't seem like a natural thing Souls are lost to sea Souls that will never be Returning to this place of living misery It's a fool's paradise It's just a fool's paradise Wasn't very nice (no, no, ooh, doo, no, no) Fool's Fool's paradise (ooh, it's just a) Fool's paradise Wasn't very nice (no, no-no, no, no, no) No-uh, oh-uh, oh-uh, oh-uh, ah, oh Souls are lost to sea Souls that will never be Returning to this place of living misery Fool's paradise (fool's) Wasn't very nice (no, no-no) Fool's paradise (no) Wasn't very nice (no, yeah) Fool's paradise (fool's, fool's) Wasn't very nice (said no) Fool's paradise (oh, said no) Wasn't very nice (oh, fool's) Fool's paradise Wasn't very nice
