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
Chorus:
So build a statue and oh build it high so the world can see
And inscribe the World's Greatest Fool and name it after me
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
Concealed inside is a broken heart
Chorus:
So build a statue and oh build it high so the world can see
And inscribe the World's Greatest Fool and name it after me
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
