[Lyric] The Fool That I Am (Alex Key)

[Verse 1]
I used to try be the cool guy
When all the ladies would walk by
Lean my back against the wall
Sunglasses on and all
Pull em down and wink an eye
But something changed when you walked past
My heart it started beating real fast
Now I'm saying stupid things
Tripping over my own feet
You ruined my whole act

[Chorus]
You got me acting like the fool that I am
I used to play it cool, now I can't
Since you've gone and seen
What's really underneath
Exposing me for a sham
Got these stars dancing in my eyes
I can hardly stand these butterflies
Please excuse me ma'am
I've gone and shown my hand
As the fool that I am
[Verse 2]
I used to wanna be like James Dean
Not phased by anyone or anything
But now I'm wiping away drool
Like a love drunk kid in school
Letting my heart sing

[Chorus]
You got me acting like the fool that I am
I used to play it cool, now I can't
Since you've gone and seen
What's really underneath
Exposing me for a sham
Got these stars dancing in my eyes
I can hardly stand these butterflies
Please excuse me ma'am
I've gone and shown my hand
For the fool that I am

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You got me acting like the fool that I am
I used to play it cool, now I can't
Since you've gone and seen
What's really underneath
Exposing me for a sham
You got these stars dancing in my eyes
I can hardly stand these butterflies
Please excuse me ma'am
I've gone and shown my hand
For the fool that I am
[Outro]
I might as well kiss my pride goodbye
What I truly am I just can't hide
Well please excuse me ma'am
I've gone and shown my hand
For the fool that I am
