I know a wise old fool
He looks like you and me
At first glance, he wears a jester's hat
But take a closer look – it's the crown of a king
To all the passerbyes
He sings, "fiddle-dee-dum-dee-dee"
But lend him an ear and he'll let you hear
A story or two, riddled with glory
"Mary, Mary, quite contrary's garden grew because
She was not the planter, but listened and answered
To the Gardener above," he said
"Go to the ant, my dears
Consider her ways and be wise
How long will you scoff at the upward prize?
And though I be but old, my wisdom is worth more than jewels
To those who turn away
You, not I, silly
Are the fool"
Here, there, and everywhere
The wise old fool would say
"Make a scandalous trade, take my hand
And give this life away"
To both the rich and poor
He tells of debt unchained
By the price of love on wings of a dove
Listen in, death's toll was paid
"Mary, Mary, quite contrary's garden grew because
She was not the planter, but listened and answered
To the Gardener above," he said
"Go to the ant, my dears
Consider her ways and be wise
How long will you scoff at the upward prize?
And though I be but old, my wisdom is worth more than jewels
To those who turn away
You, not I, silly
Are the fool
You're the fool
You're the fool"
