- Statue Of A Fool Lyrics / with translationsSomewere 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
to honor every tear he shed.
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.
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
to honor every tear he shed.
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.
