(Andy Sears)
Charade, caprice
Risque, Affectedly chic
En role, 'Au Naturel'
The show is over--
On with the show
As the make-up breaks up
Out of the crack, charisma flows
Look at the face, look at the face
Look at the, Look at the, Look l,l,l...
A gilt/guilt disguise
Belies a silvery tongue
Undone,--and after all--
Well, it's hard,--
The light's in your eyes!
You'll never believe theatre
The lies and deceit--Theatre
We go too far
Never content with who we are
Look at the face, look at the fac
e
Look at the, look at the, look l,l,l...
We laugh, we feel
So nice and none of it real
It's all unnatural
A tragic performance--
Tears in my eyes
Don't ever believe theatre
The lights and the dreams--theatre
Row to row, there they go,--count them
in
They go,--"oh, oh, oh, no, no, oh no
No way, no way, no, no, no way--no!"--
Be gone--Home!
Be gone,--
I'd rather be with the lights in my eyes
Than out in the dark--
With you
