Played the FOOL!

For you I have played many starring roles

Husband, Provider,Lover and Friend

There is just one role I can no longer play...

The Fool

Yes I have turned my head to a lot of things

at a chance for us to make it to the end.

I tried to love you through it all

But why was I always the one who had to bend

I can no longer play the fool for you

for you my love was true

I refuse to continue this game

while you sit back and remain the same

so find a new leading man for whom  you can drool

Cause I will no longer Play the FOOL!
