"The Great Pretender" lyrics

"The Great Pretender"

Let the show begin
Take a seat in the front row
Are you ready to see
The great pretender

My smile is painted upside down
White face, eyes with colors loud
Told me I'm the only thing you need
Another lie that was hiding up your sleeve
I'll make everybody see

You're not so innocent
I'm gonna let the world know
I'll make you infamous
I'll be your story ender

Destroy your masquerade
So let's sit back watch the show
Not of a gentleman
But of the great pretender

Oh oh oh oh
You're not a gentleman
You're just a great pretender
You're just a great pretender

It's like you're someone I never knew
Double life, it's both you're gonna lose
You're like mmm, but I say mhm
Stick to my word is what I'm gonna do
The truth will outrun you

You're not so innocent
I'm gonna let the world know
I'll make you infamous
You are the great pretender

Oh oh oh oh
You're not a gentleman
You're just a great pretender

Oh oh oh oh
You're not a gentleman
You're just a great pretender

Oh my my
I wonder why
They don't see your two faces, twisted mind
But I'll open their eyes

Oh my my
I wonder why
They don't see your two faces, twisted mind
But I'll open their eyes

You're not so innocent
I'm gonna let the world know
I'll make you infamous
I'll be your story ender

Destroy your masquerade
So let's sit back watch the show
Not of a gentleman
But of the great pretender

Oh oh oh oh
You're not a gentleman
You're just a great pretender
