0:06Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)

0:13Pretending I'm doing well (ooh ooh)

0:19My need is such I pretend too much

0:25I'm lonely but no one can tell

0:31Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)

0:38Adrift in a world of my own (ooh ooh)

0:44I play the game but to my real shame

0:50You've left me to dream all alone

0:56Too real is this feeling of make believe

1:02Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal (ooh ooh)

1:11Yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)

1:17Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh ooh)

1:23I seem to be what I'm not you see

1:29I'm wearing my heart like a crown

1:35Pretending that you're still around

1:40Yeah ooh hoo

1:42Too real is this feeling of make believe

1:48Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal

1:57Oh yes I'm the great pretender

2:02Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh ooh)

2:09I seem to be what I'm not you see

2:15I'm wearing my heart like a crown

2:21Pretending that you're still around

Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Pretending I'm doing well (ooh ooh)
My need is such I 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 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
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal (ooh ooh)
Yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh 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
Yeah ooh hoo
Too real is this feeling of make believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh 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
