Statue of a Fool

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Somewhere there should be for all the world to see A statue of a fool made of gold An image of a man who let love slip through his hands Then let it sit there all alone [Chorus] So build a statue, and oh, build it high So that all can see And inscribe "The world's greatest fool" And name it after, after me [Verse 2] And there on his face a gold tear should be placed To honor every tear he shed And I think it would show that everyone would know That lived inside was a broken heart [Chorus] So build a statue, and oh, build it high So that all can see And inscribe "The world's greatest fool" And name it after, after me, yeah, yeah [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] So build a statue, and oh, build it high So that all can see And inscribe "The world's greatest fool" And name it after me, oh yeah And name it after, after me [Outro] The fool, the fool, oh oh oh oh I was a fool, I was a fool to ever let you go, oh baby Oh girl, whoa, baby, and name it after, after me The fool, the fool, and name it after, after me Alright now Won't make the same mistake again, no, ooh ooh ooh, whoa-oh, hey, yeah yeah Statue of a fool, fool, fool, fool
