A Fool I Am Manfred Mann's Earth Band

Now I make right noises in all the right places
I'm taking crash courses in all social graces
I used to have a laugh, but now it's passed
I did everything I could to resist you
Still you broke me down the first time I kissed you
I used to be such fun, now it's done

Mistakes
I wish I never made mistakes
It breaks me down to think of mistakes I made
A fool
I wish I'd never be what a fool
It breaks me down to think what a fool I am

I do what you want 'cause I'm under your spell
I used to be happy, now I must do well
I used to be a clown, now I'm running 'round
Now I make right noises in all the right places
I'm taking crash courses in all social graces
I used to have a laugh, but now it's passed

Mistakes
I wish I never made mistakes
It breaks me down to think of mistakes I made
A fool
I wish I'd never be what a fool
It breaks me down to think what a fool I am
