Fools - The Dodos

Our fathers have been entangled in things

He's been squandering he's been squandering

And we don't do a thing 'cause we're busy and think

We're just wandering we're just a-wandering like fools

His son is his prize he tells a few lies

He's got his father's eyes it's in his father's eyes

And he thinks in his mind that he's just getting by

But he's a compromise he's just a compromising fool

And the stance that we take isn't much to bear

Yeah we leave things to change on their time

And our failure to care for it leaves us blind

'Til we're tired and we're crazed in the mind

Now he lies on his back and they tell him it's that

It's just a heart attack it's just a heart attack

Too late to return to the ones that you've earned

No they don't give it back

No they don't give it back to fools

And the stance that we take isn't much to bear

Yeah we leave things to change on their time

And our failure to care for it leaves us blind

'Til we're tired and we're crazed in the mind

I've been I've been silent

I've been I've been silent

I've been I've been silent

I've been I've been silent

I've been I've been silent

I've been I've been silent

I've been I've been silent

I've been I've been silent
