Fool's Overture Lyrics
Artist(Band):Supertramp
Review The Song (4)Print the Lyrics
History recalls how great the fall can be
While everybody's sleeping, the boats put out to sea
Borne on the wings of time
It seemed the answers were so easy to find
"Too late," the prophets cry
The island's sinking, let's take to the sky

Called the man a fool, stripped him of his pride
Everyone was laughing up until the day he died
Although the wound went deep
Still he's calling us out of our sleep
My friends, we're not alone
He waits in silence to lead us all home

So you tell me that you find it hard to grow
Well I know, I know, I know
And you tell me that you've many seeds to sow
Well I know, I know, I know

Can you hear what I'm saying
Can you see the parts that I'm playing
"Holy Man, Rocker Man, Come on Queenie,
Joker Man, Spider Man, Blue Eyed Meanie"
So you found your solution
What will be your last contribution?
"Live it up, rip it up, why so lazy?
Give it out, dish it out, let's go crazy, Yeah!"

Thanks to Nick Boland for submitting the lyrics.




Review about Fool's Overture
Christ? don't think so... | Reviewer: Sebastian | 9/13/2007
    Its not about Christ!!... it's partially based on Winston Churchill and how he was mocked when he warned England of the german threat before WWII began. The voice in the beginning giving a speach "we will never surrender..." is actually Winston Churchill.

    Superb song | Reviewer: Diego | 2/9/2007

    This song is all Supertramp is. Fantastic muysic, great composition, interesting lyrics.

    I have read many different meanings fr this. It makes sense that it talks of Christ, but it also makes sense if you take it as a critic to a selfish society.

    I think the lyrics, by being not too obvious, allow you your own meaning.

    Jesus Christ | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/26/2005

    This song is about Jesus Christ. And his spirit on the earth.(or the absence of it) who's the fool?

    Fool's Overture | Reviewer: Bruce Langlade | 1/14/2005

    This the most incredible music, but am I confused, about the meaning of the lyrics? Is it about Winston Churchill?
    Wheather it is or isn't this is a( "10" )in my books. I just love this piece of music. Thanks
