Lyrics

living on
a lighted stage
approaches
the unreal

for those who
think and feel
in touch with
some reality
beyond the
gilded cage

cast in this
unlikely role
ill-equipped to act
with
insufficient tact

one must put up
barriers to keep
oneself intact

living in the limelight
the universal dream
for those who
wish to seem
those who wish to be
must put aside
the alienation

get on with
the fascination
the real relation
the
underlying theme

living in a
fish-eye lens
caught in the
camera eye
i have no heart to lie
i can't pretend
a stranger is a
long awaited friend

all the world's
indeed a stage and we
are merely players
performers
and portrayers
each another's
audience outside
the gilded cage

living in the limelight
the universal dream
for those who
wish to seem
those who wish to be
must put aside
the alienation

get on with
the fascination
the real relation
the
underlying theme

living in the limelight
the universal dream
for those who
wish to seem

those who
wish to be
must put aside
the alienation

get on with
the fascination
the real relation
the
underlying theme
the real relation
the
underlying theme
