Foolish Pride Songtext
von Daryl Hall

When I′m hurt then I come on strong
I wanna break down
But I just keep it in
Being too strong is a weakness, girl
'Cause when you fight the world
You know who′s gonna win

And you say I won't look you in the eye
It's like talking to a wall
But a wall can crumble down
Yeah, there′s something that′s deep inside
That's gotta be tough
Whenever you′re around

And I've got this foolish pride
And pride goes before a fall
Yeah, I′ve got this foolish pride

Foolish pride
Fo-fo-foolish, foolish pride


You make me feel like the livin' end
But the end came quick
And made me wanna die
So I played like I didn′t care
I didn't mess my hair
Believe me, I don't know why

But I′ve got this foolish pride
And pride goes before a fall
But I′ve got this foolish pride

Foolish pride
Fo-fo-foolish, foolish pride

If I wanted, I could have fooled 'em all
That′s great 'til tomorrow when I′m all alone
You know the truth comes out in the end
When the fools start falling, they need their friends

Fool, foolish, foolish pride (and a pride)
Fool, foolish pride (I call it again)
Fool, foolish, foolish pride (pride)
Fool, foolish pride (pride)
Fo-fo-fo-foolish, foolish pride (pride)
Fool, foolish pride


Fool, foolish, foolish pride (then I come on strong)
Fool, foolish pride
Fool, foolish, foolish pride (pride)
Fool, foolish pride (pride)
Fool, foolish, foolish pride
Fool, foolish pride

Fool, fool, foolish, foolish pride
Fool, foolish pride
Fool, foolish, foolish pride
