Driving back from God knows where How'd you stay so long in Bloomington ? Trying to figure out just what it is about him Now you've found you're on your own Trying to find a place to hang your coat Can't you see that all the birds have flown away ? Yesterday's fool Comes running back to you Yesterday's fool, trying to play it cool, dropping out of school, breaking all the rules But who is fooling who ? Patterns never seem to change Same old heartache by a different name You start out happy but when it all falls down again You can come and cry to me That's not the way that it's supposed to be I keep wondering when you're going to see I'm Yesterday's fool Running back to you Yesterday's fool, trying to play it cool, dropping out of school, breaking all the rules But who is fooling who ? Now yesterday's fool Comes running back to you Yesterday's fool, Trying to play it cool, dropping out of school, still breaking all the rules But who is fooling ? Who is fooling ? Who's fooling who ?
