Fooling Me

Sometimes you make me feel like an idiot without a clue
Your love is so unreal, you’re not the same girl that I knew
Once I believed but it seems I was wrong
Wiped my snot on my sleeve, then I wrote down this song

Love is just a fantasy
Your kisses were only fooling me

Some days I go to work, I sit there and format reports
though my feelings have been hurt
and my temper is getting pretty short
Once I imagined you were in love with me
I guess I’d have to speculate I’ve watched too much TV

Love is a calamity
Your sweet words were only fooling me

Oh woe! to the woman who repeats all her mistakes
She can try to start all over but what difference would it make?
Her behavior is genetic, she’s been programmed since birth
to fool around with fire, and then cry when it hurts

Darwin says we’re evolved
he wrote the “Origin of Species” in a week
But monkeys have got it solved
they express their affection grooming fleas
Once I supposed that life could make some sense
But natural selection is all a game of chance

Love is pure insanity
My big brain was only fooling me

Yeah, love is just a fantasy
My big overdeveloped and highly-evolved brain was only fooling me
