Kid Creole and The Coconuts
Loving You Made a Fool Out of Me
Didn't you say you’d be the kind of girl
Who stayed home every night
Handle me and pamper me
You said you'd never leave my side
Well, ever since we took that vow
You must have had a change of heart
'Cause the only time I see you, baby
Is when your car won’t start

Loving you made a fool out of me

Didn't you say you'd be the kind of guy
Who bought your woman things (the less you say, the better)
Fur-lined coats and motor boats, wash and dryer machines
Well, ever since we took that vow
You must have had a change of heart
'Cause the only thing you ever bought me, baby
Was a ten cent birthday card (embarrassing!)

Loving you made a fool out of me

I didn't know that keeping you happy
Depended on me being wealthy and cool
I didn't know that keeping you happy
Depended on me being under your rule
Didn't you say you'd be my candle light?
(Loving you, loving you)
Didn’t you say you’d be my Mr. Right
(Loving you, loving you)
Didn't you say you’d be my dynamite?
(Loving you, loving you)
Didn't you say you'd be my sunlight?
(Loving you, loving you)
Didn't you say you’d be my sunlight?
Didn't you say you'd be my candle light?

Embarrassing!

Loving you made a fool out of me
Oh yeah, loving you made a fool out of me
Baby
Made a damn fool out of me, yeah
