A Proper Fool
 
 
I couldn't get nobody to stand de-liver 
I couldn't get nobody to sit the pain 
But when I hit the door as I sometimes rule 
Honey you really should have seen me yeah 
I looked a proper fool 
 
I wouldn't let her over the legal limit 
I wouldn't let her over the counter claim 
Yet when she kicked the legs from under my stool 
Honey you really should have seen me yeah 
I looked a proper fool 
 
Everyone's a winner now 
No-one is denied 
Try telling that to let see 
Civilians who have died 
Soldiers too are victims mind 
They bear the blunt of hate 
But inside tanks 
You get no thanks 
 
I couldn't let on that I was old and able 
Couldn't let on that I was more than game 
Yet when I waded in thinking there's a pool 
Honey you really ought to have seen me yeah 
I looked a proper fool 
 
Honey you really should have seen me yeah 
I looked a proper fool 
 
Fool or not I can't except 
Justice isn't blind 
Kill somebody with your car 
End up being fined 
Kill somebody in it though 
And you'll get put away 
Not for all time 
That would be a crime 
 
I couldn't get nobody to grow impatient 
Couldn't get nobody to pour in rain 
So when I hit the road even though it's cruel 
Honey you really should have seen me yeah 
Honey you're never gonna believe me yeah 
Honey you promise not to repeat it yeah 
[Honey we promise not to repeat it yeah] 
I looked a proper fool 
I looked a proper fool
