Fools - The Dodos

Our fathers have been entangled in things

He’s been squandering, he’s been squandering

And we don’t do a thing, cause we’re busy and think

We’re just wandering, we’re just a-wandering like fools

His son is his prize, he tells a few lies

He’s got his father’s eyes, it’s in his father’s eyes

And he thinks in his mind that he’s just getting by

But he’s a compromise, he’s just a compromising fool

And the stance that we take isn’t much to bear

Yeah, we leave things to change on their time

And our failure to care for it leaves us blind

'til we’re tired and we’re crazed in the mind

Now he lies on his back, and they tell him it’s that

It’s just a heart attack, it’s just a heart attack

Too late to return to the ones that you’ve earned

No they don’t give it back, no they don’t give it back to fools

And the stance that we take isn’t much to bear

Yeah, we leave things to change on their time

And our failure to care for it leaves us blind

'til we’re tired and we’re crazed in the mind

I’ve been, I’ve been silent

I’ve been, I’ve been silent

I’ve been, I’ve been silent

I’ve been, I’ve been silent

I’ve been, I’ve been silent

I’ve been, I’ve been silent

I’ve been, I’ve been silent

I’ve been, I’ve been silent
