Lyrics I Was Only Joking - Rod Stewart
Ever
since
I
was
a
kid
at
school
I
messed
around
with
all
the
rules
Apologised
then
realised
I′m
not
different
after
all
Me
and
the
boys
thought
we
had
it
sussed
Valentinos
all
of
us
My
dad
said
we
looked
ridiculous
But
boy,
we
broke
some
hearts
In
and
out
of
jobs,
running
free
Waging
war
with
society
Dumb
blank
faces
stare
back
at
me
But
nothing
ever
changed
Promises
made
in
the
heat
of
the
night
Creeping
home
before
it
got
too
light
I
wasted
all
that
precious
time
And
blamed
it
on
the
wine
I
was
only
joking
my
dear
(my
dear)
Looking
for
a
way
to
hide
my
fear
(my
fear)
What
kind
of
fool
was
I?
(Was
I)
I
could
never
win
(never
win)
Never
found
a
compromise
Collected
lovers
like
butterflies
Illusions
of
that
grand
first
prize
Are
slowly
wearing
thin
Susie,
baby,
you
were
good
to
me
Giving
love
unselfishly
But
you
took
it
all
too
seriously
I
guess
it
had
to
end
I
was
only
joking
my
dear
(my
dear)
Looking
for
a
way
to
hide
my
fear
(my
fear)
What
kind
of
fool
was
I?
(Was
I)
I
could
never
win
(never
win)
Yeah
baby,
whoa
Now
you
ask
me
if
I'm
sincere
That′s
the
question
that
I
always
fear
Vers
e
seven
is
never
clear
But
I'll
tell
you
what
you
wanna
hear
I
try
to
give
you
all
you
want
But
giving
love
is
not
my
strongest
point
If
that's
the
case
it′s
pointless
going
on
I′d
rather
be
alone
'Cause
what
I′m
doing
must
be
wrong
Pouring
my
heart
out
in
a
song
Owning
up
for
prosperity
For
the
whole
damn
world
to
see
Quietly
now
while
I
turn
a
page
Act
one
is
over
without
costume
change
The
principal
would
like
to
leave
the
stage
The
crowd
don't
understand
