“The Thrill Is Gone”- BB King.

Shirley you jest…

There’ll be no more of his funny stuff for her!

It wasn’t really his fault, it was jest-’er.

She found out he was Fool•ing around.

Was it me or jester?

A fool and his honey are soon parted.

“Why Do Fools Fall In Love?”

That’s not a french tickler.

“We had a few laughs, let’s leave it at that.”

Oh baby you, you got what I neeeeed. When you say he’s jester friend.

their favorite game was joker poke-her

“I die each time I hear this sound:

‘Here he comes: that’s Cathy’s clown.’"

He also was fired so now he’s nobody’s fool.
