Gin Blossoms

Gin Blossoms are an American pop rock band formed in 1987 in Tempe, Arizona. They broke out with the song "Hey Jealousy" from their successful major label debut, New Miserable Experience (1992), but this achievement was coupled with the firing and eventual suicide of the song's author and band co-founder Doug Hopkins, prompting the title of their followup album, Congratulations I'm Sorry (1996). After a series of charting singles, the band broke up in 1997. After they reunited in 2002 they released a fourth album, Major Lodge Victory, in 2006, and their fifth, No Chocolate Cake, in 2010. more »

Tangled up and twisted,
And I don't know what to do. 
I'm living with Marie Antoinette, 
She's living with a fool. 
Life with her majesty,
Has got one golden rule.
No matter what she will let me forget, 
That I can't have her cake and eat it too. 

So bring me in and take me down, 
There's nothing I wouldn't do. 

[Chorus]
I'm a fool for the taking, 
So, baby take me down, 
I'm a fool for the taking, 
I'm not that dumb, but I don't mind faking. 
A fool for the taking, 
Yeah, a king without a crown, 
A fool in the making, 
I can take what you give, 
'Cause you got me hypnotised. 

Wrapped in your velvet robe, 
On your princess phone, 
Are you afraid to find out what,
Might happen when I get you all alone? 

So bring me in and take me down, 
There's nothing I wouldn't do. 

[Chorus]

So bring me in and take me down, 
There's nothing I wouldn't do. 

[Chorus]

I'm a fool for the taking,
So, baby take me down, 
I'm a fool in the making,
I'm not that dumb, but I don't mind faking.
