FOOLS

THIS IS WHAT THE OFFICIAL URIAH HEEP WEB SITE SAYS ABOUT THIS SONG:

Fools - Here Sloman's vocals do work, as he tempers his emotions to fit that of the song. Great haunting guitar riff and chorus. Wonderful harmonies. Powerful solo (as usual, too short) from Mick. Still, one wonders what this progressive piece would've sounded like in the hands of Byron or Lawton, especially the ending. Grade: A

Available on the album:

Conquest
"CONQUEST"

Intro to the intro
intro/outro x 2
I know this feeling inside Has just made up my mind I'm gonna take this chance And do what's in my heart You always said that You'd stand by me And help me get along So understand I must do what's in my heart I know this feeling inside Has helped me to carry on So as the days go by And the nights that never end You play the clubs And you play the game The next day you will find You'll have to try and pre riff Please that fool again Don't you know that riff 1 x2 Fools play at games Don't you know that Fools play at games And I know that I'm not afraid of you Day after day I feel this way That I need to be moving on You know I depend on you Don't get me wrong I'll throw the dice and I play the game And hope we get along pre riff Even then I won't be fooled again Riff 1 Solo So I've read your words and I've signed my name But I can't make up my mind pre riff If you really care or you're Playing your games Riff 1 x2 Fools play at games Don't you know that Fools play at games And I know that I'm not afraid of you x2 Riff 1 until end
solo/outro until end
