Story For Fools

Once upon a time, there was a boy who lived
in an empty, hopeless hovel in a field
His friends all had the latest gismos
But all he could conjure up was his
Sad little frown

The city awaits you now
So pick up your call
Go forth and ride the unforgivin' life
Disembody yourself from the fool

Run away
Turn your Back
Don't look back
The story for fools (repeat)

On the isle of Lundy, there was a catholic girl
Who'd never even seen the light of day
Banged up in a crofters cottage, she smashed
her window beggin' for some time to play

You've been deluded
London town is none but an inch away
From a mantilla to a deshevelled rug
Change now for you've gone astray

Run away
Turn your back
Don't look back
The story for fools
