Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh) Pretending I'm doing well (ooh ooh) My need such pretend too much I'm lonely but no one can tell
Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh) Adrift in a world of my own ooh) I play the game but to my real shame You've left me to dream all alone
Too real this feeling of make believe Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Ooh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh) Just laughing and gay a clown (ooh ooh) I seem to be what not (you see) I'm wearing my heart like a crown Pretending that you're still
Yeah ooh hoo Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes the great pretender Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh ooh) I seem to be what I'm not see I'm wearing my heart like a crown Pretending that you're Pretending that you're still around
