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
