You're only gonna lose your best friend
Tell 'em what you see girl
Much better off not meddling
With what a fool believes
They much rather be blind
Black it out their mind
They only wanna see love
You only gonna get right back once
He doesn't hush he screams girl
And then you gonna find yourself all
Alone without a team, oh girl
I know that you're concerned
But you got to let her learn

[Chorus]
I can't compete with what a fool believes
You know we got another trick up the sleeve
But you don't need
What a fool believes, a fool believes
They come creeping in at a quarter of 3
Thinking you're sleeping
What a fool believes, a fool believes
I know that you're concerned
But you got to let him learn
'Cause you can't compete with what a fool believes
Take a good look in the mirror
Tell me what you see
Avoiding your own reflection
Of what a fool believes
A crooked little smile , I think you're in denial
[Chorus]
I can't compete with what a fool believes
You know we got another trick up the sleeve
But you don't need
What a fool believes, a fool believes
They come creeping in at a quarter of 3
Thinking you're sleeping
What a fool believes, a fool believes
I know that you're concerned
But you got to let him learn
'Cause you can't compete with what a fool believes

(Verse)
Fools rush in where the rest won't go
And they're always , always the last to know
Against all odds the fool remains all for
The heart can't deny you can't conceive what a fool believes
