"Fool Me" lyrics

"Fool Me"

Well, you can't fool me with your blue eyes
You can't fool me with your eloquent locution
You can't fool me with your fame
Society or flaming illusions

You can't fool me with the secrets
Advertised with every other glass of wine, oh no
But you can fool me with your tears
You fool me with your tears every time

Every time, every time and time again
I'm the loser in the end
But you take me right back
Where I began

I know you aim to use me
Please excuse me, but I know you do
But I'm here to tell you all them schemes
And flipsy parlor tricks ain't gettin' through

You can't use the sunlight of your eyes
To soften words of ice, well no
But you can use me with your tears
You use me with your tears every time

Every time, every time and time again
I'm the loser in the end
But you take me right back
Where I began

More wine, more wine
To fool the moon into risin'
You can fool me with your tears, honey
Fool me with your tears anytime
