everbodies fool Lyrics

If you wanna be like jesus let the world tear you to pieces

you can walk on water if you wait until it freezes

You don't have to fight if someone's treating you cruel

But if you let them hurt you well it isn't a virtue

(Come on) True, blue, Everybody's fool

Always trying to play by the rules

Nobody owes you anything

And everyone you know will forget your name

Sitting on the fence without any defense

Chaffing at the wires of your own suspense

They'll tear you down if you don't make up your mind

You can't hold out forever so you'll have to pick a side

True, blue, Everybody's fool

Always trying to play by the rules

Nobody owes you anything

They'll run you over if you don't get out of the way

You say your hearts so tame

But you're not the one to blame

It's just a matter with the way you raised

You say ya wanna change

But you feel like you're chained

But it's just a symptom

Of a sickness of shame

True, blue, Everybody's fool

Always trying to play by the rules

Nobody owes you anything

They'll cut you're throat if you ain't playing the game

If you wanna be like jesus let the world tear you to pieces

you can walk on water if you wait until it freezes

You don't have to fight if someone's treating you cruel

But if you let them hurt you well it isn't a virtue

(Come on) True, blue, Everybody's fool

Always trying to play by the rules

Nobody owes you anything

And everyone you know will forget your name
