First Fool
It amazes me how to you the blood line rules
It amazes me that you consider us fools
You condemn us for the blood in our veins
For the resemblance of him in our young faces and ways
Look down your nose at boys you have made!
Consider us 'less' than the new boy you've made?
It amazes me that you count yourself cool?
That you count yourself out of his little fools
LOOK in the mirror you fool and see it there for yourself
I've got your eyes, your hair, his jaw and chin as well!
But the blood you chastise that runs in my veins is half yours you fool
So chastise yourself too and remember that you were the first fool.
