Текст песни: Fool of the Century + перевод

Well, I waited and I waited all day and night

Thinkin' that my phone would ring

But you never gave me a second thought

And told all your friends about me

Yes, you told them all about what a clown I was

And how you had me on the end of a string

Now I’ve got a title for which I’m known

And that’s the Fool of the Century

Well, you seem so close

But just out of reach

I’m always chasing something down the road

And it’s way too late, I’ve shoulda learned my lesson

A long long time ago

But now no matter where I wander

All over town

I can hear them laughin' at me

Yes, they all whisper when I walk by:

«There goes the fool of the century»

Well, I tried my best to look like I fit in

With your first class company

But they all looked at me in disbelieve

And didn’t take me seriously

Well now, I followed you around for a long long time

Practically down on my knee

Then they all sent me to the head of the class

As the fool of the century

Well, you seem so close

But just out of reach

I’m always chasing something down the road

Yeah, it’s way too late, I’ve shoulda learned my lesson

A long long time ago!

And now no matter where I wander

All over town

I can hear them laughing at me

Yes they all whisper when I walk by:

«There goes the fool of the century»

Yes, the fool of the century

Mmmh, the fool of the century!
