Poor fool


Poor Fool
Poor Fool
Poor Fool
Poor Fool

He's worked for minimum wage
Even survived the dole
But he doesn't owe a penny
To a living soul
Poor Fool

He doesn't drive a big car
Or wear designer clothes
He tries hard to save a little
But a little soon goes
Poor Fool

Any millionaire would tell him
He should forget his foolish pride
And take the whole world for a ride
But he's a fool (Poor fool)
He's a fool (Poor fool)
Poor Fool
Poor Fool
Poor Fool
Poor Fool

He'd never steal from you
He wouldn't tell you a lie
Even people that don't like him
Say he's straight as a die
Poor fool

He always pays all his bills
His tax is PAYE
There's no plastic in his pocket
Only paper money
Poor fool

And the bankers they would tell him
He should forget his foolish pride
And take the whole world for a ride
But he's a fool (Poor fool)
He's a fool (Poor fool)

Poor Fool
Poor Fool
Poor Fool
Poor Fool

Never a borrower be
He learned that way back in school
But now you can't get educated
If you don't break that rule
Poor Fool

He did his best for his boys
But they're so different to him
They already owe a fortune
And they're not yet men
Poor fool

And Mistra know it all would tell him
He should forget his foolish pride
And take the whole world for a ride
But he's a fool (Poor fool)
He's a fool (Poor fool)

Poor Fool
Any millionaire would tell him
He's a fool (Poor fool)
And the bankers they would tell him
He's a fool (Poor fool)
And Mistra know it all would tell him
He's a fool (Poor fool)

He's a fool
He's a fool
He's a fool (Poor fool)

He's a fool
He's a fool
He's a fool (Poor fool)

He's a fool
He's a fool
He's a fool (Poor fool)

He's a fool
He's a fool
He's a fool (Poor fool)

He's a fool
He's a fool

Biografia

There used to be a joke that UB40 stood for the "Unemployed Birmingham 40", because there were so many band members in their videos, and none of them looked exactly sharp-suited. In fact the pop-reggae band did name themselves after an unemployment benefit form, though there was never 40 members - only eight, plus guests. They formed in 1979 and made a breakthrough when their debut single, "King/Food For Thought", was the first ever single to break the UK Top 10 on an independent label. Debut album Signing Off (1980) reached No.2 on the album chart and eventually achieved platinum sales. The group toured and recorded regularly, achieving another No.2 album in 1981 (Present Arms) a No.4 in 1982 (UB44) and finally a UK album chart-topper in 1983 with Labour of Love. That was also their American breakthrough, reaching No.8 on the Billboard 200. A cover of Neil Diamond's "Red, Red Wine" gave the band their first No.1 single in the UK, and it would eventually top the American singles chart too on re-release in 1988.
