[00:00.00]Facade - Frank Wildhorn
[00:13.92]If you live around here
[00:15.20]You need cash in the bank
[00:17.35]'Cause the houses 'round here
[00:18.75]Are all flashy and swank
[00:20.67]An' the front bit ha
[00:22.92]'At's what's called a facade
[00:27.49]All the people 'round here
[00:28.80]Are as posh as can be
[00:30.86]You won't seem hobnobbin'
[00:32.43]With rubbish like me
[00:34.27]It's the snob bit
[00:36.60]Also called a facade
[00:41.45]Every day
[00:43.90]People in their own sweet way
[00:47.22]Like to add a coat of paint
[00:50.30]And be what they ain't
[00:53.61]That's how their little
[00:54.90]Game is played
[00:57.48]Livin' out their masquerade
[01:00.83]Getting rich and getting laid
[01:03.83]Who'd want to trade
[01:08.22]But there's one thing I know
[01:09.51]And I know it for sure
[01:11.43]This disease that they've got
[01:13.03]Has got no ready cure
[01:14.83]And I'm certain
[01:17.16]Life is terribly hard
[01:20.80]When your life's a facade
[01:25.59]Every night here one house
[01:26.68]Or another is a fun-house
[01:28.40]'Cause there's someone giving a party
[01:30.08]As you see Sir
[01:32.30]This one here tonight
[01:33.33]Is rather special am I right
[01:34.92]It's the betrothal of Sir Danver's
[01:36.84]Daughter Lisa
[01:38.89]Sir Danvers Carew is a good man
[01:42.15]They call him the creme de la creme
[01:45.73]Whatever that means
[01:46.99]He's a bloody sight better than them
[01:52.71]Nearly everyone you meet
[01:54.01]When walking down a London street
[01:55.68]Pretends to be a pillar of society
[01:59.15]A model of propriety
[02:00.83]Sobriety and piety
[02:02.43]Who's never even heard of notoriety
[02:05.93]Ladies an' gents 'ere before you
[02:09.30]Which none of 'em ever admits
[02:12.76]May have saintly looks
[02:14.14]But they're sinners an' crooks
[02:16.00]Hypocrites
[02:19.48]If you live around here
[02:20.71]You need lots of panache
[02:22.83]If you live in down dear
[02:24.48]Then you must cut a dash
[02:26.09]T'isn't hard dear
[02:28.45]To create a facade
[02:33.01]You must seem to be rich
[02:34.41]And to have money to burn
[02:36.31]Even though it's a b***h
[02:37.64]Spending more than you earn
[02:39.57]That's the game here
[02:42.08]And the name is facade
[02:46.96]One or two
[02:49.44]Might look kinda well-to-do
[02:52.25]Ha
[02:52.70]But I bet you precious few
[02:55.79]Have payed for their boots
[02:59.12]I'm inclined to think
[03:00.42]Half mankind
[03:03.03]Thinks the other half is blind
[03:06.28]Wouldn't be surprised to find
[03:09.68]They're all in cahoots
[03:13.73]At the end of the day
[03:15.24]They don't mean what they say
[03:16.91]They don't say what they mean
[03:18.58]They don't ever come clean
[03:20.44]And the answer
[03:22.84]Is it's all a facade
[03:27.06]Call a walk promenade
[03:28.79]Call a street boulevard
[03:30.37]Grease your hair with pomade
[03:32.15]You'll be held in regard
[03:33.94]And I betcha
[03:36.34]If you stay on your guard
[03:38.64]Stay on your guard
[03:43.19]People love the facade
[03:46.61]What's behind the facade
[03:50.99]Look behind
[03:55.03]The facade
