Boy Who Fooled The World

I remember when I was just a boy
Friday night, got my radio on
And I'm listening out for the next big thing
Got my fingers on the play and record
My mother's warning me it's getting late
But for now I'll just keep hanging on
My eyes feel heavy, I try to stay awake
Suddenly I hear this brand new sound

There is something about a song that gets in your head
You can hear it just once and then it's hard to forget
Now you've got it recorded, you can tell all your friends
Now everybody knows he's the boy who fooled the world

I remember my teacher finally asking me
What I wanna do when I leave school
I wanna play guitar just like my heroes
He quickly cut me down and said, "No, no"

There is something about a song that gets in your head
You can hear it just once and then it's hard to forget
Now you've got it recorded, you can tell all your friends
Now everybody knows he's the boy who fooled the world

He's now the man who fooled the world
He's now the man who fooled them all
I'm now the man who fooled the world
I'm now the man who fooled them all

There is something about a song that gets in your head
You can hear it just once and then it's hard to forget
Now you've got it recorded, you can tell all your friends
Now everybody knows he's the boy who fooled the world
He's the boy who fooled the world
