Kelly Willis & Bruce Robison Ordinary Fool lyrics

You're a fool
You gave him up your heart
and he tore it all apart
Left with someone new

There's a way
You know he's leaving love
if his lips are breathing then you know
You'll soon be blue

And there's nothing you can do
And it's cruel
How your life can change
How he'll throw you down like a stick on the ground
A fool for anyone to see
I know it ain't cool
How your life can change
And no more than an ordinarily
Cause that fool would ordinarily be me

You were called
Try to change his mind
If there's some way you can find
You'll find he's not alone

And it drags you down
Like a stony crown
Like you're the captain of the clowns in his show

And it hurts how much I know
But it's cruel
How your life can change
How he'll throw you down like a stick on the ground

A fool for anyone to see
I know it ain't cool
How your life can change
And no more than an ordinarily
Cause that fool would ordinarily be me

Don't cry
Even if you don't cry
Even if you don't cry
Even if you do
You're a fool

I'm a fool
I gave him up my heart
And he tore it all apart
Put me down for you
There were nights I'd pray
I could make you pay
But in my tangled mind
I always knew

What would that do?
Cause it's cruel
How your life can change
How he'll throw you down like a stick on the ground
A fool for anyone to see
I know it ain't cool
How your life can change
And no more than I'd ordinarily
Cause that fool would ordinarily be me
