The Fool and the Crown Lyrics

It's a little late

For you to be searching for "sorry"

It's a little late

For you to convince us you're true

We have heard your load of lies before

And now it's all caught up to you

Oh…how nice to live among the stars

Well, I guess your feet have never touched the ground

Pride and gall precede the fall

Of the Fool, who dares to wear the Crown

It's a little soon

For you to tally the poultry

It's a little soon

For you to be taking your bows

Time allows for Truth to tell the tale

Dismissed masks, and broken vows

But I believe the sun will soon be rising

And, your towers soon will tumble to the ground

Pride and gall precede the fall

Of the Fool, who dares to wear the Crown

Pride and gall precede the fall

Of the Fool, who dares to wear the Crown

Though your playpen was a castle, you got lost

And noticed, no one even missed you

They never worried. Never wondered. Never cared

That you were out there on the plain

Daddy's in the house. He's always counting

Moma's got ice in her veins

Baby is a killer, and he carries on the family name

It's a little long

That you've been up in the spotlight

It's a little long

That you've been up on the stage

Strike the set. You see the crowd stayed home

Your playbill has begun to fade

You might think this ends just like the movies

But, the king is on parade without a gown

Pride and gall precede the fall

Of the Fool, who dares to wear the Crown

Pride and gall precede the fall

Of the Fool, who dares to wear the Crown

Pride and gall precede the fall

Of that Fool
