Dr. Dog - Fool's Life Lyrics






If i told you all my secrets they'd be lies
If i die a happy man, it's 'cuz i finally learned to die
I've lived a fool's life, i've lived a fool's life
Now i'm dying

wanted you to turn and walk back in
oh, they have come here by mistake
but i'll take what i can take
i've lived a fool's life, i've lived a fool's life, baby
and now i'm dying

would you say dark has sunlight?
(sun in dark and light)
have i ever done anything right?
i ought to kill me
(i haven't got the right)
and do you mind if we come along?
(i wouldn't mind at all)
would you please sing that song you just sung?
(waa-waa-waa)

oh life is just some living with an end
i would've done so many things
you would've done if you were me
i've lived a fool's life, i've lived a fool's life, baby
and now i'm dying

i'm dying!
i'm dying!
i'm dying!
i'm dead!

    @kingkhizzan I love Toothbrush. It's tied with Easy Beat as my favorite album. They're so good. They came to my town last saturday. I bought tickets. Just to find out the venue was a 21+ house. And i'm under. So I missed it.

    haha oh fuck i was just watching this movie >>'ONE GOT FAT' ^^ on tmc. and this song really fits wit this short film as well i might add

  10. s.... r....

    @eyephantom he didnt make it

  11. p.... ....

    @eyephantom dr. dog wouldn't be credited with video production unless they themselves have experience in said topic, but the video is a sample from the 1963 bicycle safety movie "one got fat"

  12. G.... P....

    i thought this was from goddam electric bill lost in the zoo

  13. C.... ....

    @andrewalbertson1 Are you sure? I'm aware of diminished chords, but it kinda sounds like some really heavy harmonics.

  14. A.... A....

    @CarlosIsDown By using Diminished Chords, AKA Panic Chords. Look them up.

  15. V.... T....

    The Zutons meet the Beatles.

  16. C.... ....

    How do they make those sounds with their guitars at the beginning?

  17. S.... ....

    I'M DYIN'!!!!!!!!

  18. C.... ....

    @TheDantheman21 As I've responded many times, it's a PSA from the [60's?] called "One Got Fat" about bike safety.

  19. C.... ....

    @CarlosIsDown agh. I meant *The Wiltern Theater in LA

  20. C.... ....

    One of the best groups out there!

  21. A.... ....

    Pretty sure the video footage is used in an Ugly Casanova music video too.

  22. G.... ....

    Doesn't Boards of Canada have the same video? hah

  23. s.... s....

    so fucking hipster

  24. C.... ....

    @heyjude97 It's a 1963 PSA called "One Got Fat"

  25. C.... ....

    People got crazy when they played this at The Wilter.

    This is from a PSA about Bike Safety called "One Got Fat".

  26. T.... ....

    @MsEmmazing
    nope they made made it themselves actually, they tried to make it look old

  27. c.... ....

    @callimah Thumbs down,man. Thumbs down.

  28. e.... ....

    For all you people saying BoC ripped off Dr Dog, I'm pretty sure the video for the BoC song is fan made, not an official video. Please remain calm.

  29. K.... M....

    plus BoC makes undeniably better music than dr. dog.

  30. K.... M....

    Everything you do is a balloon came out on hi scores almost 14 years ago. i'm pretty sure they didn't just now release an "official" video for the song, so it's obviously a fan vid. BOC did a lot more with the footage since their song is almost three times the length of fool's life, too. it's just edited better, like a tarantino film almost, with the video using the footage from the end of "one got fat" first, and then revealing the story of how this one non-primate kid got all this food.

  31. R.... ....

    well I'm glad you can be so reasonable about our disagreement.

  32. u.... ....

    no no, i saw it. but idk man, both songs fit the video great, but i think i like it with this song better.
    but ok, i'm new to Boards of Canada and lack knowledge on them, but i think they sound really good!

  33. R.... ....

    really? did you really watch the boards of canada version or are you just saying that? Because once you do, this will just seem out of place.

    And yes, obviously Boards of Canada did it first, they are much older and more respected group than this band.

  34. u.... ....

    kind of think that it fits this song better, though. besides, which video came first?

  35. R.... ....

    this was stolen from the boards of canada remake video. which also happens to sound alot better.

  36. J.... V....

    I was just thinking the same they do sounds like the beatles!

  37. m.... ....

    sounds like an amazing drunken lullaby

  38. c.... ....

    Easybeat is awesome. That is all.

  39. A.... L....

    One of my favorite songs ever!

  40. C.... ....

    reminds me beatles

  41. O.... ....

    this same video was edited into another song... boards of canada : everything you do is a baloon

  42. J.... K....

    best show ever

  43. d.... ....

    They closed the Ft Lauderdale show on Friday the 20th with this song. Great song.

  44. T.... ....

    Its a video on bike safety from the fifties, but yes ive seen the Boards of Canada fan Video with this as well.

  45. C.... ....

    how do they make that sound in the beginning? Harmonics?

  46. g.... ....

    can't stop watching this, amazing video/song!

  47. l.... ....

    the video is taking from "Boards of canada" song i think?....

  48. T.... W....
