Fools Lyrics by Newtown Neurotics

Newtown Neurotics Punk Singles

1984

Have you ever spent the night on the streets?
When your body's so numb you can't feel the rain on your feet
I do believe in love, and the things it can do
But I'm sorry I can't find a trace of it in you
You can get cornered in an alley
Feel a fist strike you hard in the face
You get kneed in the groin and left to feel your own pain
I do believe in love, and the things it can do
But I' m sorry I can't find a trace of it in you

Chorus:
You're all fools, fools, fools
You're all fools, fools, just fools

Well your lips are moving, but I can tell that you lie
'cos your teeth are too white and, your mouth's open too wide
I do believe in love, and the things it can do
But I'm sorry, I can't find a trace of it in you
Well I've seen your policies, they're stuck on toilet walls
What kind of a party, competes with sexual-based scrawls?
I do believe in love, and the things it can do
But I'm sorry I can't find a trace of it in you

If that noose in your hand
Hangs from a racialist stand
Then the life of a nation
Will be choked from the land

A hand full tyrants rule a kingdom of hell
What kind of a future are you trying to sell?
I do believe in love, and the things it can do
But I'm sorry I can't find a trace of it in you

Chorus:
You're all fools, fools, fools
You're all fools, fools, just fools

And there are a hell of a lot of people in the world like you, that I have seen
There are a hell of a lot of people in the world like you
There are a hell of a lot of people in the world like you
No more!
