oh oh yes i m the great pretender pretending that i m doing well my need is such i pretend too much i m lonely but no one can tell oh oh yes i m the great pretender adrift in a world of my own i ve played the game but to my real shame you ve left me to grieve all alone too real is this feeling of make believe too real when i feel what my heart can t conceal yes i m the great pretender just laughin and gay like a clown i seem to be what i m not you see i m wearing my heart like a crown pretending that you re still around too real is this feeling of make believe too real when i feel what my heart can t conceal yes i m the great pretender just laughin and gay like a clown i seem to be what i m not you see i m wearing my heart like a crown pretending that you re still around6
