Hey baby it’s time
To step up
And takes what’s mine
Say goodbye
To my fool’s paradise
I was right
Down to the wire
I was preaching
To the choir
I was bust
But now it’s just
Day and night
I was happy once
Maybe it was twice
Baby way back when
In my fool’s paradise
Please tell her
I didn’t know
Any better
I was broke
But I’ll get fixed
In the next world
I hope
I was happy once
Maybe it was twice
Baby way back when
In my fool’s paradise
Then you came along
And opened my eyes
Now there’s no return
To my fool’s paradise
