[Verse 1]
Day after day alone on a hill
The man with the foolish grin
Is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him
They can see that he's just a fool
And he never gives an answer
[Chorus]
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning 'round
[Verse 2]
Well on the way, head in a cloud
The man with a thousand voices
Talking perfectly loud
But nobody ever hears him
Or the sound he appears to make
And he never seems to notice
[Chorus]
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning 'round
[Flute Solo]
[Refrain]
But nobody seems to like him
They can tell what he wants to do
And he never shows his feelings
[Chorus]
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning 'round
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
'Round 'n' 'round 'n' 'round 'n' 'round 'n' 'round
[Refrain]
He never listens to them
He knows that they're the fool
And they don't like him
[Chorus]
The fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning 'round
