Cut off the crown: and get you a new one. If carefully removed, no damage to your natural tooth underneath will occur. Good luck.

Yes: To removed a crown, we just need to sectioning it in small pieces and removed them one by one ( it is easy to cut it than to tapping it out). If the tooth has root canal treatment, we can remove it even without anesthesia. ( No pain nor discomy at all)
