Somewere there should be 
for all the world to see 
a staue of a fool made of stone.

An image of a man 
who let love slip through his hands 
and left him to stand here all alone. 

So build a statue and oh build it high 
so all the world can see. 
and inscribe the worlds greatest fool,
and name it after me. 

And there on his face 
a gold tear should be placed 

And i think it would show,
and everyone would know,
concealed inside is a broken heart.

So build a statue and oh build it high 
so all the world can see. 
and inscribe the worlds greatest fool,
and name it after me.

So build a statue and oh build it high 
so that all the world can see. 
and inscribe the worlds greatest fool,
and name it after me.
Yeah, and name it after me.
