Intro

 Oooo oooo ooo

Well, you should be an actress

 You play your part so well

Your act is so believeable

 That no one else can tell

You say the lines but I see

 That you don't really love me

You keep me around to be your faithful clown

 Till someone you can love comes along

 And you'll keep on pretending

 Because the show must go on

Yes, you should be an actress

As lovely as you are

The way you play on emotions

You'd shame the brightest star

You're acting all the time

No, you're not really mine

I'm just another scene in your "play acting" scheme

No, you don't love me at all

But when you walk away

That's when the curtain will fall

 But I'll go all the way to the end of the play

I'll be a part of your masquerade

 Although I know it may be the saddest show

 In the life of a fool on parade
