Who Are We Trying To Fool?

Iris

I like to think my heart is just a muscle

A muscle that i've learned to control

I figured, hell, one harmless midnight tussle

With you would rest quite easy on my soul

Now i see you're a tres, tres goddamn charmer

An actress is taught to be cool

But who am i trying to fool?



Paperman

I'd like to toast your firm determination

But human nature's got the best of me

I've never forced myself upon a lady



Iris

You're about as subtle as artillery



Paperman

I've been here before and i have to admit

That i can't keep my cool

Who are we trying to fool?

Who are we trying to fool?



Paperman don't look for me to be your savior



Iris no good can come from this behavior



Sheila

This ain't no mystery, look at our history

It's just another wild caribbean night

The rum and drums just bring out what's in us

Temptation's been here since that very first bite

Who are they tryin' to fool?

Who are they tryin' to fool?

They should forget it, they'll both regret it

He wants a push, she needs a shove

He's got a good wife, she hides a dark life

Fuel for combustion ?anger and love

Who are they tryin' to fool?

Who are they tryin' to fool?

Who are they tryin' to fool?



Paperman

Life is for most of us one long postponement



Iris

If we think too much i guess we'll miss our chance



Paperman

It's our time, our night, our island, not our future



Iris it's not the whole tamale, just one dance



Duet

So who are we trying to fool?

Who are we trying to fool?

Let's break all of those goddamn kinja rules
