[Intro: Andy Bell]
Oh, babe
Oh, babe

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
I don't wanna look
Like some kind of fool
I don't wanna break
My heart over you
I'm building a wall
Everyday it's getting higher
This time I won't end up
Another victim of love

[Verse 1: Andy Bell]
You say that I could show some emotion
That I've been keeping secrets from you
But I can see through all your sweet talk
And all of your affection untrue

[Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell]
I'm gonna find you out
If you scream and I shout
You won't break down my protection

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
I don't wanna look
Like some kind of fool
I don't wanna break
My heart over you
I'm building a wall
Everyday it's getting higher
This time I won't end up
Another victim of love
[Verse 2: Andy Bell]
I'm gonna lock up what I'm feeling inside
Ain't no way you can break down the door
'Cause this time I've learned my lesson
You can take this declaration of war

[Pre-Chorus 2: Andy Bell]
Step right back
Put on your coat and your hat
Gonna avoid all complications

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
I don't wanna look
Like some kind of fool
I don't wanna break
My heart over you
I'm building a wall
Everyday it's getting higher
This time I won't end up
Another victim of love

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
I don't wanna look
Like some kind of fool
I don't wanna break
My heart over you
I'm building a wall
Everyday it's getting higher
This time I won't end up
Another victim of love
[Chorus: Andy Bell]
I don't wanna look
Like some kind of fool
I don't wanna break
My heart over you
I'm building a wall
Everyday it's getting higher
This time I won't end up
Another victim of love

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
I don't wanna look
Like some kind of fool
I don't wanna break
My heart over you
I'm building a wall
Everyday it's getting higher
