Well, lemme tell ya about this one time How ya gonna tell me Lemme put it to music, yeah, I say Well, I'm sick an' tired of cleanin' room An' it's the final bell for pushing broom Damned if I do an' then I'm damned if I don't Won't someone tell me What it is they all want? It makes me blue Fools, I live with fools Blue, it makes me blue Fools, I live with fools I just can't take it My teachers all gave up on me No matter what they say, I disagree An' when I need something To soothe my soul I listen to too much rock n' roll Don't want no class reunion The circus just left town Why behave in public if You're living on a playground? It makes me blue Fools, I live with fools Blue, it makes me blue Fools, I live with fools Blue, it makes me blue Makes me blue Fools, I live with fools Live with fools Blue, it makes me blue Makes her blue Fools, I live with fools All right, I said Here they goin', my way Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah!
