The Mothers of Invention - How Could I Be Such a Fool? video free download

SIDE ONE (Track 06) - written by Frank Zappa

"Freak Out!" is the mainstream debut of studio musician Frank Zappa and his band The Mothers of Invention. It is considered as one of the first concept albums in rock music, as well as being the second double-album (Bob Dylan's "Blonde on Blonde" being the first).

The album is notable for its satirical and experimental content that would be the bedrock of many Mothers albums (and future Zappa solo releases) to come.

Originally issued on Verve Records in June 1966.

LYRICS:

When I won your love,

I was very glad

Every happiness in the world

Belonged to me.

Then our love was lost

And you went away.

Now, I shed my tears

In lonely misery.

I know now that you never ever really loved me.

It hurts me now to think you never ever really cared.

I sit and ask myself a thousand times to try and find

What really happened to the love that we shared.

How could I be such a fool?

How could I believe all those lies you told me?

How could I be taken in by your sweet face?

You spoiled our love, you ruined my life;

I'm so tore down, I'm a terrible disgrace.

But there will come a time

And you'll regret the way

You treated me as if I was a fool

And didn't know

The many times you lied

About your love for me.

Someone else is gonna know

That your love was just a show...

How could I be such a fool?
