The Show Must Go On Lyrics - Leo Sayer

Baby, although I chose this lonely life 

It seems it's strangling me now 

All the wild men with big cigars and gigantic cars 

They're all laughing at me now 

Oh I've been used, used 

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

I broke all the rules, rules, yeah 

But I won't let the show go on 

Baby, there's an enormous crowd of people 

And they're all after my blood 

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

And let me out, let me out 

Oh, I've been so blind, yeah 

I've wasted time, wasted, wasted oh so much time 

Walking on the wire, high wire, yeah 

But I won't let the show go on 

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

Wasted my time, wasted so much time 

Walking on the wire, high wire, yeah 

But I won't let the show go on 

Baby, I wish you'd help me escape 

And help me get away 

Leave me outside my address 

Far away from this masquerade 

I've been so used, I've been so abused 

I've been a fool, I broke all the rules 

I've been so used oh and abused 

But I won't let the show go 

Ah, but I won't let the show 

Ho, I won't let the show go on
