David Bowie – I Pity The Fool - The Manish Boys lyrics
Well, I pity the fool, I said, I pity the fool
You know, I pity the fool, I said, I pity the fool
That falls all in love with you and expects you to be true
I pity the fool

Well, look at the people
I bet you wonder what they do
Yeah, they're just standing there
Watching you making a fool out of me

Yeah, look at the people
I bet you wonder what they do
Yeah, they're just standing there
Watching you making a fool out of me

I pity the fool, I said, I pity the fool
Ooh, I pity the fool, let me tell you that I pity the fool
Cause she'll break your heart one day and she'll laugh as she walks away
Well, I pity the fool

Yeah, look at the people
Bet you wonder what they do
Well, they're just standing there
Watching you making a fool out of me
