Fooling Yourself ARROW 1160 – Vocals by Tony Oxendine (Courtesy of Royal Records) Original Artist: Styx in 1977
OPENER - CLOSER
SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE
You see the world through your cynical eyes
You're a troubled young man I can tell
You got it all in the palm of your hand
But your hand's wet with sweat
ALLEMANDE LEFT & WEAVE
And you're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're killing yourself if you don't believe it
C'mon...Let's see what you've got
Just take your best shot and don't blow it
TAG
Come on!!
FIGURE (Mainstream)
HEADS (SIDES) SQUARE THRU and ya take it FOUR HANDS around
Your Corner DOSADO
SWING THRU and then BOY will TRADE
BOY RUN to the RIGHT
BEND THE LINE of four and now
SQUARE THRU and ya go THREE QUARTER round now
SWING that Corner PROMENADE around now
(2,3) C'mon...Let's see what you've got
Just take your best shot (and don't blow it)
(5,6) Get up...Get back on your feet
You're the one they can't beat and you know it
BREAK
SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE
Why must you be such an angry young man
When your future looks quite bright to me
How can there can be such a sinister plan
That could hide such a lamb
ALLEMANDE LEFT & you WEAVE THE LINE
And you're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're killing yourself if you don't believe it
Get up...Get back on your feet
You're the one they can't beat and you know it
