What A Fool Believes 

He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool don't see

Trying hard to recreate what had yet to be created
Once in her life, she musters a smile for his nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to realize it never really was

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
Than nothing at all keeps sending him
Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe there's a place in her life
Someday, somewhere, she will return

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be (if love can come and love can go, then why can't love return once more?)
Is always better than nothing

(Who got the power?)
Than nothing at all (oh, now)
What a fool believes he sees (I believe she's never gone away)
No wise man has the power

To reason away (to reason away)
What seems to be (oh, if love can come and love can go, oh, mama)
Is always better than nothing (better than nothing)
Than nothing at all (oh, I believe)

Every day a crook and a fool leave home. When the two meet, someone makes a deal.

A cynical proverb describing the mechanics of exploitation: the world is full of people willing to cheat (crooks) and people ready to be cheated (fools). When they encounter each other, a transaction happens—a scam, a bad bargain, a manipulation—where the crook wins and the fool loses. The saying suggests that such encounters are inevitable, not exceptional, and that vigilance is required to avoid being the fool. It is often invoked to warn against trusting too easily, especially in business, politics, or online interactions.
"Every day a crook and a fool leave home. When the two meet, someone makes a deal." Example: “He thought the crypto investment opportunity was real. His friend quoted the old saying: every day a crook and a fool leave home. When the two meet, someone makes a deal.”

The Internet is always accessed by a crook and a fool.

A modern adaptation of the “crook and fool” proverb, emphasizing that anyone connecting to the internet is simultaneously a potential target of exploitation (the fool) and potentially a predator themselves (the crook). It’s a reminder that the internet is not a neutral space: it is structured to enable both scams and predation. The saying warns against assuming good faith online and urges constant awareness that in any interaction, one might be playing either role—or both.
