[00:00.831]Rod Stewart I Was Only Joking
[00:41.675]Ever since I was a kid at school
[00:46.415]I messed around with all the rules
[00:51.95]Apologised then realised
[00:54.775]I'm not different after all
[01:00.145]Me and the boys thought we had it sussed
[01:04.825]Valentinos all of us
[01:09.65]My dad said we looked ridiculous
[01:13.55]But boy we broke some hearts
[01:17.985]In and out of jobs'running free
[01:22.545]Waging war with society
[01:27.285]Dumb blank faces stare back at me
[01:31.405]But nothing ever changed
[01:35.585]Promises made in the heat of the night
[01:40.455]Creeping home before it got too light
[01:45.135]I wasted all that precious time
[01:48.935]And blamed it on the wine
[01:52.495]I was only joking my dear
[01:56.981]Looking for a way to hide my fear
[02:01.541]What kind of fool was I
[02:06.591]I could never win
[02:14.591]Never found a compromise
[02:18.841]Collected lovers like butterflies
[02:23.451]Illusions of that grand first prize
[02:27.391]Are slowly wearing thin
[02:32.191]Susy baby you were good to me
[02:37.181]Giving love unselfishly
[02:41.551]But you took it all too seriously
[02:45.671]I guess it had to end
[02:49.351]I was only joking my dear
[02:53.841]Looking for a way to hide my fear
[02:58.341]What kind of fool was I
[03:03.451]I could never win
[04:45.301]Now you ask me if I'm sincere
[04:49.981]That's the question that I always fear
[04:54.471]Verse seven is never clear
[04:58.91]But I'll tell you what you want to hear
[05:02.521]I try to give you all you want
[05:07.891]But giving love is not my strongest point
[05:12.501]If that's the case it's pointless going on
[05:16.561]I'd rather be alone
[05:21.121]'Cause what I'm doing must be wrong
[05:25.861]Pouring my heart out in a song
[05:30.911]Owning up for prosperity
[05:34.411]For the whole damn world to see
[05:39.711]Quietly now while I turn a page
[05:44.871]Act one is over without costume change
[05:50.241]The principal would like to leave the stage
[05:55.791]The crowd don't understand
