I initially started writing this song with your typical member of the mafioso in mind. As time progressed, so did the lyrics and I found myself echoing the protests of the day, It morphed itself into a tale of corruption but this time on the “legal” side of the law. Shining the light of day on the criminal element of Wall Street. If you ask my opinion; I say a crook is a crook and who is the fool of the day?
FOOL OF THE DAY
Your pockets are full there’s change in the town
Old habits die hard corruption abounds
Men are made in the family way that’s the theme boy
For the fool of the day
♦
Life is easy I’m getting rich
I’m passing bills without a glitch
Don’t get caught cause then you’ll pay the price boy
For the fool of the day
♦
Take me break me the times have made me
Laws are meant to be broken by me
And in my fallen glory I’ll tell you my story
And I’ll never agree to cop to a plea no siree
♦
I’m not worries about the government man
The dreams I had are over things got way out of hand
I watched my back and stayed discreet
And I was set up from a one to a three
♦
Take me break me the times have made me
Laws are meant to be broken by me
And in my fallen glory I’ll tell you my story
And I’ll make bail that’s a bona-fide guarantee
♦
Your pockets are full there’s change in the town
Old habits die hard corruption abounds
Men are made in the family way that’s the theme boy
You’re the fool of the day
