The Great Pretender

[Verse 1:]
Trying hard to convince himself
He's the best you've ever seen
The only one believing it is he
Take a look behind his eyes
You'll begin to understand
Illusion masks his insecurities.

[Bridge 1:]
You gotta let him fall
With his back against the wall.

[Chorus:]
He's a great, the great pretender
(The cardinal sin)
No, he'll never surrender
(He'll never let you win)
The great, the great pretender
(Fighting doubts within)
Just sit back enjoy the show
With the great pretender.

[Verse 2:]
Trying hard to out fool the world
With his bold chicanery
Deception to the point of being obscene
Oh yeah
Eliminate his mock facade
You begin to realize
Delusion buries inability.

[Bridge 2:]
You gotta let him fall
When the writing's on the wall.

[Chorus]

[Chorus x2]

[Outro:]
Come on, roll up, sit back, enjoy the show!
