Bucket for a Crown es una canción inédita, escrita en Noviembre de 2006.
Durante un concierto a beneficio, el 27 de Noviembre de 2007, Chris Martin tocó la canción, junto a un violinista, y dijo que la había escrito la noche anterior. En el recital, además del nuevo tema, Chris hizo 3 covers: 'I Shall Be Released' de 'The Band'; 'Buckets of Rain' de 'Bob Dylan' (que dedicó a Lily Allen, diciendo: "Ella es hermosa, es dulce, y si no estuviera casado..."); y 'When You Were Young' de 'The Killers'

When you’re sitting on a beach in a car with the paint dried up Well, you’re gonna give a cause when the rain washed up Well being just there with the gypsy talking to my friend But you’ll never get with it if you don’t get respect Oh well you’ll never get with it if you just want respect Chorus But sometimes the money’s gonna run out And you’ll be standing on the corner with a belly full of doubt Sometimes somebodys gonna bring you down And you’ll be standing on your own with a bucket for a crown Well me and the boys were standing thinking we were hip I don’t wanna be the captain of a sinking ship Well me and the boys in a town where the Mormon go Listening to a session by Noel Gallagher I was listening to a session by Noel Gallagher They said sometimes your money’s gonna run out And you’ll be standing on a corner with a belly full of doubt Oh someday somebody’s gonna bring you down And you’ll be standing on a corner with a bucket for a crown Oh you’ll be standing on a corner Just waiting on a corner Standing on a corner with a bucket for a crown.
