Look What You’ve Done
J.E.T. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴Take my photo off the wall
If it just won't sing for you.
'Cause all that's left has gone away
And there's nothing there for you to prove.

Oh, look what you've done
You've made a fool of everyone.
Oh, well, it seems like such fun

Until you lose what you had won.

Give me back my point of view
'Cause I just can't think for you.
I can hardly hear you say
What should I do?
Well, you choose

Oh, look what you've done
You've made a fool of everyone.
Oh, well, it seems like such fun
Until you lose what you had won.

Oh,look what you've done
You've made a fool of everyone
A fool of everyone
A fool of everyone

Take my photo off the wall
If it just won't sing for you.
'Cause all that's left has gone away
And there's nothing there for you to do.

Oh, look what you've done
You've made a fool of everyone.
Oh, well, it seems like such fun
Until you lose what you had won.

Oh, look what you've done
You've made a fool of everyone

A fool of everyone
A fool of everyone.
