Fool's Paradise - The Sylvers

Living your lives in a fool’s paradise

And that’s not for me

I tell you, yeah

I’m high society

Living your lives in a fool’s paradise

But what can I do

I didn’t make this world

I was only born

That’s everybody’s attitude

Who’s life was torn, oh

(Life) is not what you make it

That’s what the upper class make it seem to you

Well (come on, come on now)

People, open up your minds

'Cause this is what you wanna do

Living your life in a fool’s paradise

And that’s not for me

I tell you, yeah

I’m high society

Living your lives in a fool’s paradise

It’s part of growing up

A child shows much perception

But he’s born the victim

Influenced by poverty and bogetters

Drew strives for more, oh oh

More money, more power, more security

He stays so empty inside

So busy trying to get ahead

That he starts forgetting how to live, live, live

That he starts forgetting how to live, live, live

That he starts forgetting how to live, live, live

Except for

Living your lives in a fool’s paradise

And that’s not for me

I tell you, yeah

I’m high society

Living your lives in a fool’s paradise

This is open to choose

Who’s life they’re willing to lose

But never

Will they fight their own war

That he starts forgetting how to live, live, live

That he starts forgetting how to live, live, live

That he starts forgetting how to live, live, live
