Go On Fool

If I work hard every day from nine till five
Just so you and the children can survive
Darling, the least you can do is show me the courtesy to
Clean the house, cook a meal, that's all I ask of you

You lie in the bed, talking on the phone
Watching soap operas on TV all day long
When I ask, "Darling, please, tell me what's wrong."
"Go on, fool," that's what you say to me. "Leave me alone."

Go on, fool (go on, fool). Go on, fool Leave me alone
Go on, fool (go on, fool). Go on, fool (go on, go on)
Oh, honey, I'm long gone

You had children out of wedlock the day we met
I married you, took you home in spite of all of that
I adopted the children and loved them as my own
Now they reject me. You don't respect me. What did I do wrong?

Come Friday, Saturday and Sunday, you're gone
I have to shop, cook and clean, all alone
Come Monday, you're home raising sand, singing that same old song.
"Go on, fool. Can't you see I am sick? Leave me alone."

Go on, fool (go on, fool). Go on, fool Leave me alone
Go on, fool (go on, fool). Go on, fool Leave me alone
