LOOK AROUND ME ALL I SEE

THOUSANDS OF FACES WANTING ME

HOW CAN I LEAD, HOW CAN I RULE

WHEN I'M THE KING OF THE FOOLS



WHAT KIND OF KINGDOM I'VE COME FROM

NO CROWN OR CASTLE, LITTLE DO I OWN

I DON'T HAVE SILVER, GOLD OR JEWELS

YET I'M THE KING, KING OF THE FOOLS



AND I CAN'T HELP BELIEVING THE WORLD IS ON MY SIDE

NO I CAN'T HELP BELIEVING IN MY HEART

BUT I CAN'T STOP THIS FEELING

THAT I SHOULD RUN AND HIDE

SO BEFORE I DIE I'LL SIT AND WONDER WHY

OH, I WONDER WHY

KING OF THE FOOLS

WHO'LL FACE THE WORLD DEFIANTLY

KING OF THE FOOLS

UNDERSTANDING LESS THAN ME

KING OF THE FOOLS

OH I'M THE KING, KING OF THE FOOLS



THE OUTSIDE WORLD CAN'T UNDERSTAND

JUST WHO WE ARE OR WHAT I AM

WELL WE DON'T WANT THEIR LIFE OF RULES

I'LL BE THE KING, KING OF THE FOOLS

KING OF THE FOOLS

I'D PROUDLY RULE FOR ALL TO SEE

KING OF THE FOOLS

THERE'S NOTHING ELSE I'D RATHER BE

KING OF THE FOOLS

YES I'M THE KING, KING OF THE FOOLS

KING OF THE FOOLS

KING OF THE FOOOOOOOOOOOOLS



AND I CAN'T HELP BELIEVING THE WORLD IS ON MY SIDE

NO I CAN'T HELP BELIEVING IN MY HEART

BUT I CAN'T STOP THIS FEELING

THAT I SHOULD RUN AND HIDE

SO BEFORE I DIE I'LL SIT AND WONDER WHY

OH, I WONDER WHY

KING OF THE FOOLS

I HEAR THEM LAUGH AND SHOUT AT ME

KING OF THE FOOLS

THEY SHAKE THEIR HEADS IN DISBELIEF

KING OF THE FOOLS

OH I'M THE KING, KING OF THE FOOLS



KING OF THE FOOLS

WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE TO CAST DOWN

KING OF THE FOOLS

PUT ALL OUR FOOLS ACROSS THE GLOBE

KING OF THE FOOLS

YES I'M THE KING, KING OF THE FOOLS

KING OF THE FOOLS

KING OF THE FOOLS
