Welcome to the grand illusion
|
Come on in and see what's happening
|
Pay the price get your tickets for the show
|
|
The stage is set, the band starts playing
|
Suddenly your heart is pounding
|
Wishing secretly you were a star
|
|
But don't be fooled by the radio
|
The T.V. or the magazines
|
They'll show you photographs
|
Of how your life should be
|
But they're just someone else's fantasy
|
|
So if you think your life is complete confusion
|
Cause you never win the game
|
(Cause your neighbors got it made)
|
Just remember that it's a grand illusion
|
And deep inside we're all the same
|
|
America spells competition
|
Join us in our blind ambition
|
Get yourself a brand new motor car
|
|
But someday soon we'll stop to ponder
|
What on Earth's this spell we're under
|
We made the grade and still we wonder
|
Who the Hell we are!
