Sometimes I wonder if I'm still alive
   How much abuse can someone stand and survive
   How long I've waited for this day to arrive
   When I won't be a fool no more
  
   Nobody knows how you push me around
   Nobody sees how you treat me like I'm your clown
   I never made a sound
  
   It's the very last time you will get on my case
   It's the very last time 'cause
   I won't be a fool no more
   It's the very last time you will step on my face
   It's the very last time 'cause
   I won't be a fool no more
  
   I still remember the look in your eyes
   Just a reflection of the things you despise
   But sooner or later I've got to get wise
   And I won't be a fool no more
  
   Nobody sees how you treat me like dirt
   Nobody knows just how badly a man can hurt
   You've got a lesson to learn
  
   I can still feel the sting of your words
   But I won't cry no matter how much it hurts
   My head may go crazy, my heart it may burst
   But I won't be a fool no more
   No I won't be a fool no more
