Who Are We Trying To Fool? Lyrics

Iris I like to think my heart is just a muscle A muscle that I've learned to control I figured, hell, one harmless midnight tussle With you would rest quite easy on my soul Now I see you're a tres, tres goddamn charmer An actress is taught to be cool BUT Who am I trying to fool? Paperman I'd like to toast your firm determination But human nature's got the best of me I've never forced myself upon a lady Iris You're about as subtle as artillery Paperman I've been here before and I have to admit that I can't keep my cool Who are we trying to fool? Who are we trying to fool? Paperman Don't look for me to be your savior Iris No good can come from this behavior Sheila This ain't no mystery, look at our history It's just another wild Caribbean night The rum and drums just bring out what's in us Temptation's been here since that very first bite Who are they tryin' to fool? Who are they tryin' to fool? They should forget it, they'll both regret it He wants a push, she needs a shove He's got a good wife, she hides a dark life Fuel for combustion anger and love Who are they tryin' to fool? Who are they tryin' to fool? Who are they tryin' to fool? Paperman Life is for most of us one long postponement Iris If we think too much I guess we'll miss our chance Paperman It's our time, our night, our island, not our future Iris It's not the whole tamale, just one dance Duet So Who are we trying to fool? Who are we trying to fool? Let's break all of those goddamn Kinja rules
