The show must go on
Verse
Life is a game of charades.
A sort of guessing game.
Where we go thru the motions
And pray they know our name.
Pre chorus
Every day is a new show.
A new role to play.
A brand new script, a brand new mask.
A new game each day.
Chorus
You play the role, bare your soul.
You’re here then you’re gone.
It’s a new day, a new dawn.
The show must go on.
Verse
Life is like a carousel.
Goes up, down and around.
One day we are the hero.
The next day we’re the clown.
Pre chorus
Every day is a new show.
A new role to play.
A brand new script, a brand new mask.
A new game each day.
Chorus
You play the role, bare your soul.
You’re here then you’re gone.
It’s a new day, a new dawn.
The show must go on.
Bridge
You miss a show, you lose your role.
The lights, the applause.
Tag
But the show, the show
The show must go on.
