Lyrics:
Same old situation
Coming back again
And I suppose it's been
The fate of many, many men
I tried and tried and
Tried and tried to please that girl
Oh, but I found out
It simply does not end
Fool somebody else
Do it to yourself
Mama, tell me how it feels
When you hold somebody tight
Just to see 'em go in the middle of the night
Would you give up all your love
If you already knew it would never be enough?
Put my heart back on the shelf
Why don't you, fool somebody else?
Here we go again
We've reached the bitter, bitter end
And there's no more life
I lost my bestest, precious friend
You've tried, I've lied, you've cried
About anything at all
And I still found out
I'm never gonna win
Fool somebody else
Do it to yourself
Mama, tell me how it feels
When you hold somebody tight
Just to see 'em go in the middle of the night
Would you give up all your love
If you already knew it would never be enough?
Put my heart back on the shelf
Why don't you, fool somebody else?
Fool somebody else
Do it to yourself
Like you're doing it to me
Hold somebody close
Knowing very well that they're just about to leave
Trust them with your heart
Even though you know they'd betray you, from the start
Fool somebody else
'Cause what you're doing ain't good for my health
Fool somebody else
Do it to yourself
Mama, tell me how it feels
When you hold somebody tight
Just to see 'em go in the middle of the night
Would you give up all your love
If you already knew it would never be enough?
Put my heart back on the shelf
Why don't you fool somebody else?
