Poor Fool

Poor Fool

Poor Fool

Poor Fool

He’s worked for minimum wage

Even survived the dole

But he doesn’t owe a penny

To a living soul

Poor Fool

He doesn’t drive a big car

Or wear designer clothes

He tries hard to save a little

But a little soon goes

Poor Fool

Any millionaire would tell him

He should forget his foolish pride

And take the whole world for a ride

But he’s a fool (Poor fool)

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

Poor Fool

Poor Fool

Poor Fool

Poor Fool

He’d never steal from you

He wouldn’t tell you a lie

Even people that don’t like him

Say he’s straight as a die

Poor fool

He always pays all his bills

His tax is PAYE

There’s no plastic in his pocket

Only paper money

Poor fool

And the bankers they would tell him

He should forget his foolish pride

And take the whole world for a ride

But he’s a fool (Poor fool)

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

Poor Fool

Poor Fool

Poor Fool

Poor Fool

Never a borrower be

He learned that way back in school

But now you can’t get educated

If you don’t break that rule

Poor Fool

He did his best for his boys

But they’re so different to him

They already owe a fortune

And they’re not yet men

Poor fool

And Mistra know it all would tell him

He should forget his foolish pride

And take the whole world for a ride

But he’s a fool (Poor fool)

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

Poor Fool

Any millionaire would tell him

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

And the bankers they would tell him

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

And Mistra know it all would tell him

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

He’s a fool

He’s a fool

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

He’s a fool

He’s a fool

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

He’s a fool

He’s a fool

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

He’s a fool

He’s a fool

He’s a fool (Poor fool)

He’s a fool

He’s a fool
