Everybody Plays The Fool

Everybody Plays The Fool - Clarence Carter

Ok so your heart is broken

You're sitting around mopin' mopin' mopin' cryin' cryin'

You say you're even thinking about dying

Well before you do anything rash baby listen to this

Everybody plays the fool sometime

There's no exception to the rule listen baby

It may be factual it may be cruel I ain't lying

Everybody plays the fool

Fallin' in love is such an easy thing to do

But there's no guarantee that the one you love

Is gonna love you

Oh loving eyes they cannot see a certain person could never be

Love runs deeper than any ocean

It clouds you're mind with emotion

Everybody plays the fool sometime

There's no exception to the rule listen baby

It may be factual it may be cruel I ain't lying

Everybody plays the fool

How can you help it when the music starts to play

And your ability to reason is swept away

Oh heaven on earth is all you see

You're out of touch with reality

And now you cry but when you do

Next time around someone cries for you

Hey everybody plays the fool sometime

Use your heart just like a tool listen baby

They never tell you so in school

Everybody plays the fool

There's no exception to the rule listen baby

Everybody plays the fool
