The Show Must Go On lyrics

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

Oh, I've been used, ooh, used

I've been a fool, oh, what a fool

I broke all the rules, oh, yeah

But I must let the show go on

Baby, there's an enormous crowd of people

They're all after my blood

I wish maybe they'd tear down the walls of this theater

Let me out, let me out

Oh, I'm so blind, oh, I'm blind

I wasted time, wasted, wasted, wasted time

Walking on a wire, high wire

But I must let the show go on

Oh, I'm so blind, oh, I'm blind

I wasted time, wasted, wasted all too much time

Walking on a wire, high wire

But I must let the show go on

Baby, I wish you'd help me escape

Help me get away

Leave me outside my address

Far away from this masquerade

'Cause I've been blind, oh, so blind

I wasted time, wasted, wasted all too much time

Walking on a wire, high wire

But I must let the show go

I must let the show go

I must let the show go on
