Day of the Fool

I am but a fool they say
Something like a child
But today is my birthday
And they will be nice
I'm but your fool they say
True that's what I think
My mind is drifting away
I feel that I sink...

See Benjy is a fool
A child who's 30 years old
Who would go dressed in the pool
They are telling him there is gold
See Benjy...

Caddy is a friend of mine
She sees what I see
She knows what's up in my mind
She won't laugh at me
Caddy is a friend of mine
She sees what I see
Sometimes we play seek and hide
She makes me happy

Caddy, Caddy
Caddy is a friend of mine
I like the touch of her voice
Caddy

But today is my birthday
And they might be nice
She knows what's up in my mind
She smells like a tree

See old Benjy is a fool
A child who's 30 years old
Who would go dressed in the pool
They are telling him there is gold

See Benjy
Just look at him
Caddy, Caddy

I'm but a fool they say
Something like a child
But today is my birthday
And they will be nice
I'm but your fool they say
True that's when I think
My mind is drifting away

I feel that I, I'll sink ...
