Skip scarbrough
Can this world be a masquerade
Are you really what we see on the outside
And hidin' what what you really are on the inside
Pretending that you're something you're really not
Whole world is a masquerade
Everybody, everybody wears another face
Can't you see what you really are
Pretending that you want the world to be a better place,
Fightin', makin' war on your fellow man
So why wear this face
That makes it seem everything's so great
Whole world is a masquerade
Everybody, everybody wears another face
