statue of a fool
Somewhere there should be for all the world to see A statue of a fool made of stone An image of a man who let love slip through his hands And then just let him stand there all alone And there on his face a gold tear should be placed To honor the million tears he's cried And the hurt in his eyes would show so everyone would know Concealed is a broken heart inside So build a statue and oh build it high So that all can see Then inscribe the world's greatest fool And name it after me
