\"Ain't<\/p>\n

K<\/span>ingdom of Fools was one of the first songs I posted last September at the beginning of A Year of Songs. I posted a new version not quite two weeks ago. It was a rush job. In more ways than one. The tempo was, shall we say, aggressive.<\/span><\/p>\n

My dissatisfaction with it must have been playing tricks with my subconscious since I apparently suppressed the memory of that quite recent version and, after a less than thorough search for previous versions that missed the February 18 version, I rerecorded it, thinking, somehow I hadn’t done it since September.<\/p>\n

And, I’m happy to say that this<\/span> version is <\/span>quite different, much more considered. I think my favorite is still the first, but you may find that the additional guitar in this brings something new to the song. Or you may find it an annoying distraction. Heh.<\/p>\n\n

In the Kingdom of Fools<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Aint no such thing
\nas too high to fall
\naint no place so low
\nyou cant get there
\nif you crawl<\/p>\n

Aint no bro’
\nso close you can’t play him down
\n’cause in the kingdom of Fools<\/span>
\nonly one can wear the crown<\/span><\/p>\n

Ain’t no truth so pure
\nyou can’t turn it to a lie
\nain’t no love so deep
\nyou can’t drain it ’til it’s dry<\/p>\n

Ain’t no flower so pretty
\nyou cant crush it to the ground
\nin the Kingdom of Fools<\/span>
\nonly one can wear the crown<\/span><\/p>\n

Aint no lie
\nthat can ever make you see the truth
\nand your life til now
\njust so much living proof<\/p>\n

Ain’t no one but you
\ncan keep you from where you’re bound
\n‘Cause in the Kingdom of Fools<\/span>
\nOnly one can wear the crown<\/span><\/p>\n
