It's not political dogma that keep the lover from his beloved, or even simple geography but the fact that falling in love is a one-sided affair.
Lyrics
You say you've never seen as big a fool as me
Well that's alright, hey! alright
You say my answers will be the ruin of me
That's alright, hey alright
'Cause I ain't as sharp as a ferret's tooth
Or as bright as the morning star
But if you go around putting me down
You don't know how lucky you are
How lucky you are
You say you've never seen such a fool as mr
That's alright, hey alright
You say my questions will be the ruin of me
That's alright, hey alright
