You played me for a fool
And I played the part so well
You played it smart, you played it cool
Broke every promise, every rule
And I couldn't even tell
You looked me in the eyes
And said, I was the only one
It was no surprise
That I kept falling for your lies
And they had just begun
Chorus:
Fool me once, shame on you
You told me that you would be true
You were so easy to believe
Fool me twice, shame on me
I thought I'd won your heart
But you were still in love with him
You said we'd never be apart
It was a lie right from the start
You left me hanging on this limb
I never thought that you could be
The kind to hurt me just for fun
But it's sure no fun for me
I think it's time to set you free
Pick myself up and say we're done
Repeat chorus:
Fool me once, shame on you
You told me that you would be true
You were so easy to believe
Fool me twice, shame on me
You were so easy to believe
Fool me twice, shame on me
