<b>let's play man charade</b> by <i>Man Charade</i><br />I know you’ve come to hear me sing

About your life, in the songs I bring

Your loneliness and other blue

A line or two to pull you through

Parade with everything in place

Buying the right jeans and matching face

Still won’t give you the right to claim

The rest of me in the public’s name

So let us remain strangers

And let us play it straight

You play Hunky Dory

And I’ll play Man Charade

I fell into the same old trap

My father’s father’s father fell

And although I don’t know his face

His name and genes I know too well

His name and genes they are my hell

So let us remain strangers

And let us play it straight

You play Hunky Dory

And I’ll play Man Charade

There was a time when there was peace

There was a time when I had rest

But now you’re already in my knees

Moving up towards my chest

It’s hurting bad inside my ch-ch-chest

So let us remain strangers

And let us play it straight

You play Hunky Dory

And I’ll play Man Charade

I don’t do this for money

I don’t know who would pay

You smile and think it’s funny

While I’m so sick of this charade

So sick of this charade

Children, let’s play Man Charade!

Hate this charade
