Baby, although I toast this lonely life
It seems it's strange with me now
All the world men - big cigars, gigantic cars
They're all laughing at me now
...
Baby, there's an enormous crowd of people
And they're all laughin', laugh, laugh
Baby, although I chose this lonely life
It seems it's strangling me now
All the wild men, big cigars, gigantic cars
They're all laughing at me now
...
Baby, there's an enormous crowd of people
And they're all after my blood
Much prefer my lyrics
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
Behind the cupcakes
Behind the curtain
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
But Inside in the dark, I'm naked, sugar-free
But Inside in the dark, I'm aching to be free

But inside in the dark, I'm aching to be free
Queen's,

Empty spaces - what are we looking for?
Empty spaces - what are we living for?
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
Even the dawn can't make it sugar free
Inside the dark, I'm aching to be free
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
Fairy tales are here to stay
Fairy tales of yesterday
Far away from this masturbation
Far away from this masquerade
Help me stay awake
Help me get away
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
I can fly, we are my friends
I can fly, my friends
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
I can fly, you are my friend
I can fly, my friends
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
I guess I'm learning
I must be woman now.
I guess I'm learning
I must be warmer now.
I know the drill, I'll on the pill.
I'll top the bill, I'll overkill.
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
I must be warm enough
I must be warmer now

I'll face it with a grip, I'm never given up
I'll face it with a grin, I'm never giving in
Queen's,

I'll face it with a grip, I'm never giving it
I'll face it with a grin, I'm never giving in

I'll face it with a grin
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
I'll go again
I'll overkill
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
I'm over here
or
I'm over there
I'll overkill
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
In the Gacha Life
In the pantomime
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
In these pants of mine
In the pantomime
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
Joe must go on
The show must go on
Leave me as I fly a jet
Far away from this masquerade
Leave me outside my address
Far away from this masquerade
Leave me as I fly a jet far away from this masquerade
Leave me outside my address far away from this masquerade
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
My makeup may be fake
My makeup may be flaking
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
My makeup may be faking
My makeup may be flaking
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
On with the shawl
On with the show
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
On with the snow
On with the show
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
Outside my heart is making
The makeup that is faking
On my smile that still stays on.
Inside my heart is braking
My makeup may be flaking
But my smile still stays on.
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
Overnight
Hold the line
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
Tiger tales of yesterday
or
Tiger tails of yesterday
Fairy tales of yesterday
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
Will grope but never die
Will grow but never die
Queen's,
"The Show Must Go On"
You must go home.
Show must go on.
