10 Songs About Fools for April Fools Day

If you're planning some big April Fools Day pranks, you might want to throw together a few of these great songs about fools for a soundtrack to conspire to. Or if you're not into pulling April Fool's Day pranks on people, you could just enjoy listening to these songs to celebrate the silly holiday in a not-as-annoying fashion:

Foolin' by Def Leppard - Def Leppard repeats the word in this song quite a bit, but they want you to know that they're not foolin', and it's never a good idea to try to fool a man in spandex.

Fool for the City by Foghat - Sorry, country-lovers. This song is only for those who love the big city lights. But as a consolation, there are a lot of fools in the city.

Nobody's Fool by Avril Lavigne - Avril Lavigne may wear some pretty foolish things and seem like the kind of girl that enjoys good April Fools Day pranks, but she still alleges that she's nobody's fool.

Foolin' Around by Buck Owens - Buck knows his lady is foolin' around, but he must like fools, because he lets her know that when she's through, she can come home and still fool around with him.

Act a Fool by Ludacris - This song combines the title of 'Fast & Furious' with the phrase "Act a fool." So it really works.

The Fool by Lee Ann Womack - No song uses the word "fool" more than this one, with the line, "I'm the fool in love with the fool who's still in love with you."

Foolish Games by Jewel - Jewel is probably not a fan of April Fools Day pranks; in this song, the poor girl says that foolish games are tearing her apart.

Everybody's Fool by Evanescence - This song is about someone who has everybody fooled (and isn't that who you want to be on April Fools Day?) But in the end, he ends up being everybody's fool, so beware.

Fool in the Rain by Led Zeppelin - The song sounds upbeat, but it's about a poor fool standing in the rain. It doesn't use the word "fool" as much as some of these other songs, but it's Led Zeppelin, so who cares?

Fool by Shakira - It's hard not to be a fool for Shakira and her wiggly hips, but she's apparently already a fool for somebody else.

So have fun listening to these songs and trying to pull off your April Fools Day pranks, but just don't go too far, or you might end up being everybody's fool.
