Ship of Fools lyrics

I can't believe what is happening to me

My head is spinning

The flowers and the trees are encapsulating me

And I go spinning

He was the baby of the class, you know

He really didn't know that one and one was two

Two and two were four

He was the baby of the class, you know

He really didn't know that, really didn't know that

Oh, what a poor soul

Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?

Ooh, why is life so precious and so cruel?

I close my eyes and I try to imagine

What you're dreaming

Why can't you see what you're doing to me?

My world is spinning

You were the baby of the class, you know

You really didn't know that one and one was two

Two and two were four

You were the baby of the class

You were so young and so uncertain

Suffer little children

Oh, what a poor soul

Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?

Ooh, why is life so precious and so cruel?

He was the baby of the class, you know

He really didn't know that one and one was two

Two and two were four

He was the baby of the class

He was so young and so uncertain

Suffer little children

Oh, what a poor soul

Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?

Ooh, why is life so precious and so cruel?

Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?

Ooh, why is life so fragile and so cruel?

Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?

Ooh, why is life so precious and so cruel?

Ooh, do we not sail on a ship of fools?
