Buffoon of Love

Once I was a little girl
Then I had to grow
Once I thought that life was swell
But now I know
That Love is a ruthless king
For whom you dance and sing
Oh you're the buffoon of Love

From Senegal to Mexico
People say I told you so
From the Holy Land to California
People say well didn't I warn you
That Love is a ruthless king
For whom you dance and sing
Oh you're the buffoon of Love
You're the buffoon of love

Once you were a little boy -Yeah
Then you had to grow –Uh-huh
Once you thought that life was joy –I did
But now you know –I know
That Love is a ruthless king
For whom you dance and sing
Oh you're the buffoon of Love
You're the buffoon of Love
Is a ruthless king
And you're a helpless thing
Oh you're the buffoon of love
You're the buffoon of love
You're the buffoon of love
