Jitters Last Of The Red Hot Fools
I been a fool played it dumb Shoulda played it smart Used my head but not my heart Musta been crazy played it hot I shoulda played it cool Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools (Whoa) Everybody said you were an easy mark It was a cinch to catch your eye Just a matter of getting your attention Acting suggestive And not being coy and shy I been a fool played it dumb Shoulda played it smart Used my head but not my heart Musta been crazy played it hot I shoulda played it cool Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools (Yeah) When I was alone and I would think of you I always knew what I would say But whenever I'd see you I'd shiver And say something silly Or just look the other way And instead of even trying I just shut up And looked for an excuse to say good-bye I been a fool played it dumb Shoulda played it smart Used my head but not my heart Musta been crazy played it hot I shoulda played it cool Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools (Oh yeah) I didn't understand what was wrong with me I didn't understand what was making me shy I knew I had to choose I didn't want to lose But how can I win when I'm too scared to try (Oh oh) All my friends say I should call you up You'd be sure to see the light Just a matter of picking up the phone book looking up the number and calling you up that night But, instead of trying harder I just jumped up and hung up the receiver when you said 'Hi' I been a fool played it dumb Shoulda played it smart Used my head but not my heart (I) Musta been crazy played it hot I shoulda played it cool Now I'm just the last of the red hot f-f-fools Played it dumb Shoulda played it smart Used my head but not my heart (I) Musta been crazy played it hot I shoulda played it cool Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools Now I'm just the last of the red hot fools
