Ship of Fools - World Party
I worked for many years as a professional musician and have written music for I don’t want to say how long... never submitted any of my songs but that’s not the only reason I’m not famous ... cough cough...
So here’s some lines from one of my songs where OK, I’m a FOOL. In the song I had just played another typical late night gig
I woke up to an amazing headache, wondering where I was by trying to recognize the ceiling. Then I realized I’d been more foolish than normal.....
She took my wallet and my credit cards
My digital watch and my good luck charm
The only thing she left me Penicillin took away
(No this did not happen)
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

I remember Fool on the Hill album. Showed it to my then girlfriend and she got embarrassed.
Found the album recently in a second hand store, with a large round stick on tag is right over the “hill” on the back side of the cover.
I bought it for Scarborough Fair.
She’s a Fool-Lesley Gore
My Dad would play that Sergio Mendes album all the time.
I still play it from time to time, good stuff, loves me some “Mas que Nada”.
I think Austin Powers made it popular again.
Led Zeppelin: Fool in the Rain.
Whitesnake: Fool for your lovin.
Evanescence: Everybody’s F.
I noted that the Song I just mentioned, Steely Dan's "Only A Fool Would Say That", was actually written as a rebuttal to "Imagine".
