is to live in distraction
like the old man living by the side of the road
with his whole life in his hands
the nature of the fool
is to live in illusion
like the one just sitting there watching the wheels
go round and round
(as if they'd do anything else)
the nature of the fool
is a turn on or a turn off
depending on how sensitive
or ignorant you are
the nature of the fool
is to live in pretention
like the wandering minstrel playing his songs for free
with belly full, but hungry
so play with yourself as long as you can
don't be afraid of your own love young man
and young girl please be everything you can be
don't let the world tell you that you're not free
the nature of the fool
is to live in exposure
as if naked is a costume that nobody dares to see
and the child laughs just to be
the nature of the fool
is to enjoy the nonsense
cuz it really doesn't matter when you're playing in disguise
so few really use their eyes
and it really doesn't matter if i'm wrong or right
but who ever finds out where they really belong
really now, really, is it all really alright?
of course it is, the fool has his, and he gives us this song
it is the nature of the fool
to see nothing is wrong
for there are no problems, only solutions
get with it now kids
it is the nature of the fool
to never really belong
no matter how much he may have wanted to once
when we were all kids
take care of each other as long as you can
as much as you can care and make it real
and learn from the fool if you cannot understand
he knows you may never know how much he can feel
how good it can feel
to live, to be, to love, to see
the magic moment shared
while everybody laughed or turned away
the fool only cared
