Like an angry type, fools rush in Who knows what’s inside, light or sin Take an empty page, filled with love and rage Make them start it all again Where the righteous angels fear to tread And the blessed souls they rise from dead Call it lack of faith, rise above this place Maybe it’s all in your head Rub my sleepy eyes, what’s that I see A host of angels come for me I will stand prepared, I will not be scared Open up my heart and let them in Where there was a soul, now an empty hole So stand aside now babe, let the fools rush in One day in and one day out Same old hoodoo follow me about I cannot explain through the joy and pain But maybe it’s time to throw the bastards out I can’t articulate what I don’t know Or anticipate the seeds I sow I know you feel it too this sense of déjà vu Give it a chance child, let it grow Cause in the morning, the sun will rise I see the answers baby in your eyes Like a new tattoo, it’s drawn all over you But who knows where the needles been There is no mistake when a levee breaks In a New York minute, let the fools rush in Stand together, hollowed out With my lover, with my friend Sister, brother, let it out Feel the passion, born again Come together, stomp and shout Now's the moment, let's begin Sister, brother, lover, friend It doesn't matter where you've been The door is open, there's no end So open up your lonely heart And welcome as the fools rush in Yeah like a morning, the sun will rise I see the love, child, in your eyes Like a new tattoo, spilled all over you Who knows where your troubled heart has been There is no mistake, when the levee breaks In a New York minute, let the fools rush in Where there was a soul, now it blows a hole So stand aside now baby, let the fools rush in Stand aside now baby, let the fools rush in
