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
