[Intro]
Hey, girl‚ you know what?
You and I have just been elected to the Hall of Fame
Uh-uh‚ mama‚ not that Hall of Fame
The Fool's Hall of Fame
[Verse 1]
Last night, I could hardly sleep
After all the foolish things that we said
I had the strangest dream
And I still can't get it out of my head
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We were there (We were there)
When they called out the roll for the Fool's Hall of Fame
(Fool's Hall of Fame)
Up the stairs (Up the stairs)
All the couples were goin', they called out their names
(Called out their names)
When they got to the last two in line
What a shock‚ they were yours and mine
[Chorus]
And I dreamed that they added our names
To the Fool's Hall of Fame
Yes, it seems they had added our names
To the Fool's Hall of Fame
[Verse 2]
We went in through the closing doors
And as soon as they had locked us inside
They showed us pools of tears
Under statues made of unyielding pride
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We were there (We were there)
On a tragical tour of the Fool's Hall of Fame
(Fool's Hall of Fame)
Everywhere (Everywhere)
Were the pitiful pictures and plaques with their names
(With their names)
At the end came the saddest part
They presented us with broken hearts
[Chorus]
And I dreamed that they added our names
To the Fool's Hall of Fame
Yes, it seems they had added our names
To the Fool's Hall of Fame
[Bridge]
I woke (I woke right up)‚ grabbed the telephone
I tried to call, but you were not at home (Not at home)
So when I heard you're not, somehow, I knew
You came to tell me you were dreaming too
[Chorus]
Oh, we dreamed that they added our names
To the Fool's Hall of Fame
Yes, it seems they had added our names
To the Fool's Hall of Fame
Oh, we dreamed that they added our names (To the Fool's Hall of Fame)
They added our names to the Fool's Hall of Fame
(It seems they had added our names)
Oh, I'm so glad, I'm so glad that it was only a dream
(To the Fool's Hall of Fame)
(Dreamed that they added our names)
So don't, so don't let the dream come true, baby
(To the Fool's Hall of Fame)
