Fool Me Once

Fool Me Once

Fool me once,
I was the fool.
Became the dunce,
It was not cool!

Went on for months,
You called my bluff.
You pulled some stunts,
I was but tough!

I was just ten,
We were at school.
You “played” my friend,
You broke all rules!

Found out the truth,
It broke my trust.
I bust your tooth,
It was but just!

I’m not the kid,
You can fool twice.
You placed your bid
Now I roll the dice!
