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 kindom have no throne?
No crown or castle 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 believin´
The world is on my side
No, I can´t help believin´
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 face the world defiantly
King if 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 or rules
I´ll be the king, king of the fools

King of the fools
I 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 foooools

And I can´t help believin´
The world is on my side
No, I can´t help believin´
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´ll 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 stones
King of the fools
Better a fool than just a clone
King of the fools
Yes, I´m the king, king of the fools
King of the fools
King of the foooools
