Supertramp - If Everyone Was Listening lyrics

rate me

the actors and jestes are here

the stage is in darkness and clear

for raising the curtain and no-one's quite certain who's play is

(how long)

if only we had listened then

if we'd know just how right we were going to be

for we dreamed a lot, and we scemed a lot

and we tried to sing of love before the stage fell apart

oh

if everyone was listening, you know

there'd be a chance that we could safe the show

who'd be the last clown

to bring the house down

oh no, please no

don't let the curtain fall

what is your costume today

and who are the props in your play

you're acting a part

which you thought from the start was an honest one

but how do you plead

an actor indeed go relearn the lines

you don't know what you've done

the finale has begun

oh

if everyone was listening, you know

there'd be a chance that we could safe the show

who'd be the last clown

to bring the house down

oh no, please no

don't let the curtain fall
