Lyrics
Verse 1:
I knew the emergency could wait
And I knew the phone would never ring
I knew an apology would never ever come
From the lips that caused my suffering
Verse 2:
I knew the fire had burned out
And I knew that all of the excuses had no end
I knew the revolving run-around
Would never make you bend
Pre-Chorus:
But I couldn't see what you'd done to me
Chorus:
I'm nobody's fool
And I don't need to be your baby girl
You treated me so cruel
Thank you for teaching me
One thing I know I never knew
I'm nobody's fool
Verse 3:
I knew the lies would never stop
And I knew your ignorance was deafening
I knew that every empty promise that you uttered
Would only keep on echoing, echoing
Pre-Chorus:
Would only keep on echoing
Chorus:
I'm nobody's fool
And I don't need to be your baby girl
You treated me so cruel
Thank you for teaching me
One thing I know I never knew
I'm nobody's fool
Bridge:
You couldn't come over to see me
And you didn't return my call
All the sudden you're so damn busy
And I gotta accept it all
Well I did for as long as I could
And it finally made me see
The only thing I truly knew
Is I'm better off without you
Chorus:
I'm nobody's fool
And I don't need to be your baby girl
You treated me so cruel
Thank you for teaching me
One thing I know I never knew
I'm nobody's fool
Chorus:
I'm nobody's fool
And I ain't gonna be your baby girl
You treated me so cruel
Thank you for teaching me
One thing I know I never knew
I'm nobody's fool
I'm nobody's fool
