Ooh oh oh ooh Ooh oh oh ooh Ooh oh oh ooh
The disappointed
All shuffle round in circles
Their placards look the same
With a picture and a name
Of the ones who broke their hearts_________________
The disappointed
All congregate at my house
Their voices sob with grief
And they want me to be chief
Of the tribe with broken hearts_________________
Once, I had no sympathy
For those destroyed and thrown away by love
Seems, your ring upon my fin-
ger signifies that I've become the spokesman of...
The disappointed
Will bear me on their shoulders
To a secret shadow land
Where a sombre marching band
Plays a tune for broken hearts________________
Ooh oh oh ooh Ooh oh oh ooh
...and day grows darker now
Ooh oh oh ooh
...everywhere
The disappointed
Are coming in their millions
They're spilling from the bus
At a monument to us
Made of bits of broken heart_______________
Once, I had no sympathy
For those destroyed and thrown away by love
Seems, your ring upon my fin-
ger signifies that I've become the spokesman of...
The disappointed
Are growing every second
They blot the sun to black
At the bottom of the pack
I'm the king of broken hearts________________
The disappointed... The disappointed... The disappointed...
The disappointed... The disappointed... The disappointed...
