I feel just like a fool,
But I have every reason to,
Cause I deserted you when I left home,
Yea when I left home

lyrics

Just Like A Fool

VERSE 1

When I left home things were different
Now I’m all alone in this kitchen moaning and bitching
A dog without a bone and I’m itching
Just another clone in the system
Everyone disowned him and ditched him
Alone and got no one to miss him
There’s no one on the phone but I listen
Sisters visit but they don’t bring the kids in
“Here’s your uncle number one stoner of Brixton
Getting stoned is his only religion”
No they don’t want that moment of friction
No not known for my wisdom
But I did my atonement in prison
And my atonement was shown in a vision
Think my hearts made of stone but it isn’t!
Ahh! Seems I wont get forgiven

CHORUS

I feel just like a fool,
But I have every reason to,
Cause I deserted you when I left home,
Yea when I left home

VERSE 2

When I left home I had big schemes and ideas
But got bad dreams and quite fierce
At night I screamed and cried tears
A family I aint seen in five years
Who hides under covers and whispers?
I really miss my brothers and sisters
You hear me? I love ya’s and miss ya’s
I send my mother some kisses
Man I ran a mile and I dumped ya
Bad memories I’m piling’em under
Now I’m just an island of thunder
I dream a little while and become a
Child in the summer smiling in wonder
With my family running wild and I’m younger
In the dream I get a phone dial in ya number
This is what I say while I’m among ya

CHORUS

I feel just like a fool,
But I have every reason to,
Cause I deserted you when I left home,
Yea when I left home

VERSE 3

When I left home I thought it was one big adventure
Sixteen-year-old drunk with dementia
Went to London found my father
Round the park all drowned in lager
Slept in his flat on a crap mattress
Within a short while more bad habits
Starting hanging round with the crack addicts
Got hooked on the brown aint that tragic?
Heroin is evil and it charms
Heroin is lethal and it harms
Watch friend die with needles in their arms
Listening to the Beatles in a trance
Drug user, Intravenous
Substance abuser only veins I have left are the ones in my penis
Angry at myself, understand me this is hell
I plan to tell my family this as well!

HORUS

I feel just like a fool,
But I have every reason to,
Cause I deserted you when I left home,
Yea when I left home

"the offering of a rose basket I bear the widows cried

The coffin was a closed casket affair the lid closed tight

In every starving land there's a fat King

And every laughing man shares a sad grin"
