leo sayer - the show must go on

baby, although i chose this lonely life
it seems its stranglin me now
all the wild men with big cigars and gigantic car
theyre all laughin at me now

oh, ive been used (ooh...)
ive been taken for a fool (oh, what a fool)
i broke all the rules (oh, yeah)
but i wont let the show go on

baby, theres an enormous crowd of people
and theyre all after my blood
i wish maybe theyd tear down the walls of this theater
let me out, let me out

oh, ive been so blind (oh, im blind)
i wasted time (wasted, wasted, oh so much time)
walkin on the wire, high wire
but i wont let the show go on

oh, im so blind (oh, im blind)
i wasted time (wasted, wasted, oh so much time)
walkin on the wire, high wire
but i wont let the show go on

baby, i wish youd help me escape
help me get away
leave me outside my address
far away from this masquerade

oh, ive been so used, ive been so abuse
ive been a fool, i broke all the rules
ive been so used oh and abused
but i wont let the show go
no, i wont let the show
no, i wont let the show go on.
