Genesis
One Man’s Fool
[Part I]

[Verse 1]
As the buildings crumble, tumble to the ground
And the dust-filled smoke rises in the air
You know that somebody, somewhere
Looks with pride, they're satisfied

[Chorus]
To all who think they know
To everyone that knows that they're right
D'you ever wonder why
D'you never ask the question
Even in the depths of night?

[Verse 2]
Now as the daylight fading ends another day
For too many life will never be the same
And it is all for the reason
They will never understand

[Chorus]
To all who think they know
To everyone that knows that they're right
D'you ever wonder why
D'you never ask the question
Even in the depths of night?
[Verse 3]
And on the morning after, do you realise?
See the ruined faces and the ruined lives
Inside your head, do you never have
The thought, a moment of doubt?

[Chorus]
To all who think they know
To everyone that knows that they're right
D'you ever wonder why
D'you never ask the question
Even in the depths of night?

[Part II]

[Chorus]
There are only dreams, one like any other

[Pre-Chorus]
What means the Earth to one or few
Means nothing to another

[Chorus]
There are only dreams like any other

[Verse 4]
Drawing lines upon the sand
On the land, on the sea
Then dying to defend them
Seems quite meaningless to me
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you know what means the Earth
To some or only one
Can mean just nothing
Nothing, nothing to another

[Chorus]
There are only dreams like any other
There are only differences
Worth living but not dying for

[Refrain]
One man's joy makes another man weep
Nothing you can do is ever gonna change it
One man's saint is another man's fool (There are only dreams)
One man's hot is another man's cool (Like any other)

[Verse 5]
And when the war is over, won
Will there be peace for evermore?
Statues carved right out of stone
Out of wood, made from gold
Praying for their mercy
That won't save their souls

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you know what means the Earth
To some or only one
Can mean just nothing
Nothing, nothing to another
[Chorus]
(There are only dreams like any other)
There are only hopes and beliefs one like any other
(There are only dreams like any other)
Worth living but not dying for
Living but not dying for, not killing for
(There are only dreams like any other)
Like any other

[Verse 6]
To all of those who think that they know
All I can say, yes, all I can say

[Refrain]
One man's joy makes another man weep
Nothing you can do is ever gonna change it
One man's saint is another man's fool
One man's hot is another man's cool

[Chorus]
(There are only dreams like any other)
There are only hopes and beliefs, one like any other
(There are only dreams like any other)
'Cause there's no reason, now, [?], no, no, no, no
'Cause there's no reason, now
(There are only dreams like any other)
(There are only dreams like any other)
(There are only dreams like any other)
