It Takes A Fool To Remain Sane

Whatever happened to the funky race
 A generation lost in pace?
 Wasn't life supposed to be more than this?
 In this kiss, I'll change your bore for my bliss
 Let go off my hand, and it will slip on the sand if you don't
 Give me the chance to break down the walls of attitude
 I ask nothing of you
 Not even your gratitude
 And if you think I'm corny, then it will not make me sorry
 It's your right to laugh at me
 And in turn, that's my opportunity to feel brave
 'Cause it takes a fool to remain sane
 Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
 It takes a fool to remain sane
 Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
 Every mornin', I would see her getting off the bus
 The picture never drops, it's like a multicolored snapshot
 Stuck in my brain, it kept me sane
 For a couple of years, as it drenched my fears
 Of becoming like the others who become unhappy mothers
 And the fathers of unhappy kids, and why is that?
 'Cause they've forgotten how to play
 Or maybe they're afraid to feel ashamed
 'Cause it takes a fool to remain sane
 Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
 It takes a fool to remain sane
 Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
 To seem strange
 To seem insane
 To gain weight, to seem gay
 I'll tell you this
 (Fool to remain sane)
 (Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane)
 (It takes a fool to remain sane)
 (It takes a) fool to remain sane
 'Cause it takes a fool to remain sane
 Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
 It takes a fool to remain sane
 Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
 (Fool to remain sane)
 (Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane)
 (It takes a fool to remain sane)
 (Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane)
