Lyrics The Great Pretender (Extended Version)

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender, pretender, pretender, pretender, pretender
Pretender, pretender, pretender, pretender (ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh)
Pretender, pretender, pretender, pretender (ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh)
Pretender, pretender, pretender, pretender
Pretender, pretender, pretender (ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh)

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender, pretender, pretender, pretender
Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, oh yes (ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh)
Oh yes, pretender, pretender , pretender (ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh)
Pretender, pretender, pretender, pretender
Pretender, pretender, pretender (ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh)

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
Pretending I'm doing well (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
My need is such
I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no-one can tell

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
Adrift in a world of my own (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
I play the game
But to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone

Too real is this feeling of make believe (oooooh, make believe)
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal (oooh, ooh, oooh, ooh, oooh)

Oh, oh yes, I'm the great pretender (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
Just laughing and gay like a clown (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see (oooh, oooh, oh, you see)
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around

Yeah (ooooh-oh-ooh-oh-oooh)
Woo-hoo
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal (real, feel, what my heart)

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're

Still around
Around
Oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh
Real, feel, what my heart

Yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're

Pretending that you're still around
