Statue of a Fool
by Kansas
1969
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
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
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
