Queen – The Great Pretender lyrics

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

Oh yes I'm the great pretender (oooh oooh)
Adrift in a world of my own (oooh oooh)
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
Oooh oooh yes I'm the great pretender (oooh oooh)
Just laughing and gay like a clown (oooh oooh)
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 oooh hoo

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 (oooh oooh)
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
