BBM - Can't Fool The Blues lyrics

You can fool the landlord so you don't pay the rent You can fool the world and become the President You can fool all the people some of the time You can make a million dollars And cry "I don't have a lousy dime" But you can't fool the blues You can't fool the blues When you re makin' all the rules it's so hard to lose You can't fool the blues, oh no You can fool the Romans into lending you an ear Write a story in the papers believing every smear You can fool the rich by driving around in a wreck You can gel up someone s nose Every time you bounce a cheque But you can't fool the blues No you can't fool the blues You can't fool the blues it just laughs at each lie Can't fool the blues, oh no You can fool your brother into lending you his car Rub up the waitress for some co*ktails at the bar You can talk some bimbo into taking you home You can fool the wile into thinking youre alone But you can't fool the blues You can't fool the blues That blues chews you up and Spits you right out You can't fool the blues, oh no
