I know about the other cats you got in town
‘Cause they come right back and tell me every turn that goes down
Now who’s the fool? Who is the fool?
Well, you may be smart than anybody else
But sometime, baby, you outsmart yourself
Now you gave my money to a cat named Jim
But I got it from his woman when she took it from him
Now who’s the fool? Now, come on, tell me, baby, who is the fool?
I know you may be smart than anybody else
But sometime, honey, you outsmart yourself
When you come home late, you think it makes me sore
But you never hear those footsteps running out the back door
Who’s the fool? You don’t wanna come and tell me, who is the fool
Well, you may be smarter than anybody else
But sometime, darling, you’ll just outsmart yourself
Whoa, who is the fool? Look at me and tell me, honey, who is the fool?
I say you may be smarter than anybody else
But, uh, ow, watch out, darling, you gonna outsmart yourself
Mmm, who is the fool?
‘Cause they come right back and tell me every turn that goes down
Now who’s the fool? Who is the fool?
Well, you may be smart than anybody else
But sometime, baby, you outsmart yourself
Now you gave my money to a cat named Jim
But I got it from his woman when she took it from him
Now who’s the fool? Now, come on, tell me, baby, who is the fool?
I know you may be smart than anybody else
But sometime, honey, you outsmart yourself
When you come home late, you think it makes me sore
But you never hear those footsteps running out the back door
Who’s the fool? You don’t wanna come and tell me, who is the fool
Well, you may be smarter than anybody else
But sometime, darling, you’ll just outsmart yourself
Whoa, who is the fool? Look at me and tell me, honey, who is the fool?
I say you may be smarter than anybody else
But, uh, ow, watch out, darling, you gonna outsmart yourself
Mmm, who is the fool?
