What Kind of Fool Am I (from "Stop the World, I Want to Get Off") Songtext
von Shirley Bassey

What kind of fool am I
Who never fell in love
It seems that I′m the only one
That I have been thinking of

What kind of girl am I?
An empty shell
A lonely cell in which
An empty heart must dwell


What kind of lips are these
That lied with every kiss
That whispered empty words of love
That left me alone like this

Why can't I fall in love
Like other people can
And maybe then I′ll know
What kind of fool I am

What kind of clown am I?
What do I know of life?
Why can't I cast away the mask of play
And live my life?


Why can't I fall in love
Till I don′t give a damn
And maybe then
I′ll know what kind of fool I am
