Songwriter: Chrissie Hynde James Walbourne

Producer: Stephen Street

[Verse 1]
See how she enters
The room like a diva
If you said she was damaged
I wouldn't believe ya
Laughing and joking, a real superstar

[Chorus]
Well you can't hurt a fool
So don't even try
Because genuine fools
Don't play by the rules
And she won't reconsider
Oh, oh, oh, you can't hurt a fool

[Verse 2]
The first thing betrays
A fool is her tongue
Slipping and tripping
Coming undone
But something is missing
Something ain't right

[Chorus]
Well you can't hurt a fool
So don't even try
Because genuine fools
Don't play by the rules
And she won't reconsider
Oh, oh, oh, you can't hurt a fool

[Bridge]
And a fool never gives it away
And a fool, don't believe what she'll say
A fool never puts a foot wrong
She's living her dream and singing her song

[Verse 3]
Look at her now, she's centre stage
Too old to know better
Too young for her age
Mixed up as a litter of dangerous breeds
Ooh oooh

[Chorus]
Well you can't hurt a fool
So don't even try
Because genuine fools
Don't play by the rules
And she won't reconsider
Oh, oh, oh, you can't hurt a fool
Oh, oh, oh, you can't hurt a fool
Oh, oh, oh, you can't hurt a fool
