Karen Rodriguez Happy April Fools
Walked into the party looking all around Danced all night in circles You're nowhere to be found Blew kisses in the air but none of them reached you
We ended And I befriended empty stools I guess you didn't know the rules Happy April Fools
I thought you were too pure to fabricate a hoax So I waited all day long for the punch line of your joke But it never came and that's when I knew
I had dwindled And you had swindled my precious jewels I guess I didn't know the rules Happy April Fools
I fell so hard for a trickster Who told me his tricks would do me no harm So I loaned him my sense of humor And now both my smile and laughter are gone
Your innocent prank always meant to be cruel But baby didn't they teach you in school You can't make a fool of someone who's already a fool
You were always charming Knew just what to say I Fell into your trap Like a lion and it's prey And when you showed your teeth it was far too late
Legs were numb And I was as dumb as a heap of mules I should have known the rules Happy April Fools
Now I walk alone with my head up in the clouds Faceless with no soul holding hands with fear and doubt They're my new best friends and I met them through you Still you'll never be forgotten
Long as I stay haunted by ghosts and ghouls I always knew the rules Happy April Fools
I fell so hard for a trickster Who told me his tricks would do me no harm So I loaned him my sense of humor And now both my smile and laughter are gone Your innocent prank always meant to be cruel But baby didn't they teach you in school
You can't make a fool of someone who's already a fool I said you can't make a fool of someone who's already a fool No no you can't make a fool of someone who's already A fool
