Will Not Be Your Fool Lyrics



You’ve hurt me for the last time
Yeah you finally went and broke my only rule
It’s the last time
you finally went and broke my golden rule
I’ll be your lover or your friend darling
But I’ll be goddamn if I’m ever gonna be your fool

I will be there when you need me baby
but I don’t wanna be your toy -- listen here
If a plaything is all you want me for
You can get up, go out and get yourself another boy
Because I took that cla*s
I graduated Phi Beta goddamn Kappa from that school
I’ll be your lover or your friend darling
But I’m never, ever, ever gonna be your fool

I gave you all I had to give honey
I sincerely tried to keep you satisfied
I gave you everything I own
I truly tried to keep you satisfied
I gave you all my heart, my love, my car, my money, my house, my children
The least you coulda done was let me keep one small, tiny shred of my pride

I would work for you all day
And I would love you all night
I swore and promised to stand beside you baby when you’re wrong, yeah when you’re right
But look here sugar lips
There’s one thing in this life that I’d never ever do for you
I’ll be your lover or your friend darling – yes I will
But I refuse to be your fool

(INSTRUMENTAL)

Well you gambled with my love this time sweetheart
But I want you to understand this is one time you finally lost your bet
You’re gambling with my love
This time you lost the bet
Hey look any man dumb enough to hang around for the kind of stuff you hand out
Would deserve every low-kick rotten-leg dirty trick you and I both know that he’d get

I know you just cooked up this mess to find out exactly how
Long you could keep me stuck in it
Pick up your telephone dial information ask for the time
You can calculate it to the last goddamn minute, now look-
You did not have to hurt me baby
No you did not need to be that cruel
I’ll be your lover or your friend darling
I’ll be Goddamn, 6 feet under ground, dead in my grave, buried and long forgot
I’ll be so long gone and forgot that my flesh will have turned and returned to the nutrients and elements and the molecules from which it originated
I mean to say that the genus and species of worms that used to crawl in and out of the sockets of my eyelid holes will vanish from the face of the earth
I need to say I’ll see the earth leave its orbit
I’ll wear the rings of Saturn for a ring around my little pinky
I’ll let your sister marry a Venutian
I will see you dead
I’ll see your lover dead
I’ll see his lover dead
I’ll see his lover dead
I’ll see his lover dead
I’ll see that faggot dead
I’ll see everyone you ever knew, loved, touched, stood next to, heard of, smelt, felt, dreamed about in your life or any of your descendant’s lives -- down to the 168th person
Roasted and tortured in hell
For 1 billion trillion years
16 eternity’s
27 forevers
11 thousand years after that before I will be your fool!
