You're only gonna lose your best friend 
Tell 'em what you see girl 
Much better off not meddling 
With what a fool believes 
They much rather be blind , 
Black it out their mind 
They only wanna see love 
You only gonna get right back once 
He doesn't hush he screams girl 
And then you gonna find yourself all 
Alone without a team, oh girl 
I know that you're concerned 
But you got to let her learn 

Chorus :
‘Cause you can't compete with what a fool believes 
she know I got another trick up the sleeve 
But she don't need 
What a fool believes, a fool believes 
Become creeping in at a quarter of 3 
Thinking you're sleeping 
What a fool believes, a fool believes 
I know that you're concerned 
But you got to let him learn 
'Cause you can't compete with what a fool believes 

Take a good look in the mirror 
Tell me what you see 
Avoiding your own reflection 
Of what a fool believes 
A crooked little smile, I think you're in denial 

Chorus:
I can't compete with what a fool believes 
You know we got another trick up the sleeve 
But you don't need 
What a fool believes, a fool believes 
Become creeping in at a quarter of 3 
Thinking you're sleeping 
What a fool believes, a fool believes 
I know that you're concerned 
But you got to let him learn 
'Cause you can't compete with what a fool believes 
 
Fools rush in where the rest won't go 
there are ways, always the last to know 
Against all odds the fool remains all for 
The heart can't deny you can't conceive what a fool believes
