spoken)

Ok, so your hearts broke. You sit around moping, crying, crying

you say you're even thinking about dying

Well, before you do anything rash, Dig this...



(sung)

Everybody plays the fool sometime;

There's no exception to the rule.

Listen, baby, it may be factual, may be cruel,

I ain't lying, everybody plays the fool.

Falling in love is such an easy thing to do,

And there's no guarantee that the one you love is gonna love you.

Oh, lovin' eyes they cannot see a certain person could never be;

Love runs deeper than any ocean,

And clouds your mind with emotion.

Everybody plays the fool, sometime,

They use your heart like a tool.

Listen, baby, they never tell you so in school

But everybody plays the fool.

And 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;

Love runs deeper than any ocean,

And clouds your mind with emontion.
