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
