You Made A Fool Out Of Me

Brendan Benson · My Old Familiar Friend [2009]

I left my happy home



I took off down the road



I tried to hold my tongue



I've never felt so dumb



There's only so much I can take



When you point out my every mistake



And you show me up now so everyone can see



You make a fool out of me



I had the strangest dream



I tried but could not scream



Nobody seemed to care



And I'm sure that you were there



What I believe to be true



Whatever my point of view



You prove me wrong and you'll disagree



And you'll make a fool out of me



I took the long way home



I needed time alone



And I breathed the evening air



And I wished that you were there



And how should I take what you say



When you'll just explain it all away



You'll pull the rug out from under my feet



And you'll make a fool out of me



You make a fool out of me



You make a fool out of me



You make a fool out of me



You make a fool out of me



You make a fool out of me



You make a fool out of me
