Oh there he goes   The king with the wooden crown   A throne alone   He's looking so sad and alone      King of his world   He roams through his kingdom at night   It looks so good   Until it all fades into the morning light      Tonight's looking beautiful   Sad but so beautiful   Dark yet so wonderful   Hold your head high because   Sorrow becomes you, you wear it so well   Sorrow becomes you it's easy to tell   Though my heart always rules   I'll be king of the fools   Wearing sorrow with my crown of tears      Look at the world   Ruled by kings with wooden crowns   They are the fools   These princes with nothing to say - hey hey!   Sometimes I feel   Like a king with a wooden crown   It's a lonely world   When your dreams keep fading away      Tonight's looking beautiful   Sad but so beautiful   Dark yet so wonderful   Hold your head high because   Sorrow becomes you, you wear it so well   Sorrow becomes you it's easy to tell   Though my heart always rules   I'll be king of the fools   Wearing sorrow with my crown of tears      King of the fools   I'll be king of the fools   With my crown of sorrow   I'm king of the fools      Sorrow becomes you, you wear it so well   Sorrow becomes you it's easy to tell   Though my heart always rules   I'll be king of the fools   Wearing sorrow with my crown of tears      I dressed you in sorrows   I dressed you in blues   So my heart felt so hollow   My whole life was you   I'll be king of the fools   I'll be king of the fools   With my crown of sorrow   I'm king of the fools
