[You're not a big shot now, oh no, you're not a big shot now, oh
no]
Fallen idol, you're not a big shot now
Fallen idol, she put you down, and how
You stole her love from me
And this day I knew I'd see
And now you're just a fallen, fallen, fallen idol
Oh fallen idol, yeah fallen, fallen idol
You thought that you were smart
Fallen idol
You thought you won her heart
You were sitting on your throne
Now she's left you all alone
And now you're just a fallen, fallen, fallen idol
Yeah fallen idol
With your black hair, eyes of blue
You thought that she loved only you
You never thought you'd be the one to cry
You never thought she'd ever say bye bye
You're just a fallen idol, you're not a big shot now
Fallen idol, she put you down, and how
You stole her love from me
And this day I knew I'd see
And now you're just a fallen, fallen, fallen idol
Oh fallen idol, yeah fallen, fallen idol
How does it feel
To know her love's not real
You stole her love from me
And this day I knew I'd see
And now you're just a fallen, fallen, fallen idol,
Oh fallen idol,
yeah fallen idol
