Welcome to the great republic
Guess i should show you round
Where once i was a king
And now i am a clown

The love that we once shared
Made a king of me
But now you're gone...but now you're gone
All i face is poverty

...king without a heart
...king without a hope
...king without a woman baby
Oh i'm a king without a crown
...king without a heart ...
...king without a hope
...king without a woman baby
Oh i'm a king without a crown

Hell hath no fury
Like a woman scorned
But heaven don't boast - no heaven don't boast
The jewel - the pretty jewel i just pawned

Every cloud has a silver lining
Every dog has its day
Oh but i guess the sun stopped shining
On the day you went away

Bathed in former glory
Deposed from my throne
How do i get to tell my story?
When all get's your answerphone...
But you ain't home

With the love you gave
I felt like royalty
But now you're face to face - face to face
With one ex-member of the aristocracy

There's no need to feel down
Yeah just take a look around
You'll see a man who's just a man
Nothing more
A king without a crown
