The Great Pretender 
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender
Pretending I'm doing well
My need is such
I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no one can tell
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender
Adrift in a world of my own
I play the game but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone
Too real is this feeling of make-believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Too real when i feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're...
Pretending that you're still around
Foolin' Around
You're so beautiful, you just lay it on me
Foxy lady, you really are the greatest show in town
You want to play,
You wanna eat your cake and have it your way
You got it easy and you don't give a damn
Fooling around, you just keep fooling around with me.
Walking down the street, people watching closely
Such a tease, you can turn on any man you want
You masquerade,
You're the catch of the season every night and day
You, you, you don't have any time for me
You just keep fooling around with me.
Fooling around - everywhere I go you're the only,
Only, only sexy lady
Fooling around, all you do is keep me hanging around
You're really so hard to please
You've gotta really watch that, baby !
You just, you just, fooling around with me
You just, you just, fooling around with me
You keep fooling, you keep fooling
Fooling, fooling, fooling, fooling,
Fooling...
Want to play, but you always want it all your own way
You got it easy but you don't give a damn
Fooling around, you just keep fooling around with me.
You just keep fooling around with me, yeah
I'm a fool, fool, fool, fool for you baby,
Keep fooling around
I'm a fool, fool, fool, for you sexy baby,
Keep fooling around
I'm a fool, fool, fool, fool for you baby,
Keep fooling around
Time
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
We might as well be deaf and dumb and blind
I know that sounds unkind
But it seems to me we've not listened to
Or spoken about it at all
The fact that time is running out
For us all
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
You don't need me to tell you what's gone wrong
You know what's going on
But it seems to me we've not cared enough
Or confided in each other at all
It seems that we've all got our backs
Against the wall
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
Time,time waits for nobody
Waits for nobody
Time, Time, Time, Time...
Waits for nobody at all
Time waits for nobody
Time don't wait for no one
Let us free this world forever
And build a brand new future for us all
Time
Waits for nobody, nobody, nobody
For no one
Your Kind Of Lover
Now you say you're leaving me
I just can't believe it's true
You're my kind of lover
Wanna little bit of feeling
Add a little bit of meaning to my life
I wanna little bit of feeling
A little bit of sunshine to my life
I wanna be your kind of lover
Give a little bit of feeling
Just a little bit of feeling
Add a little bit of meaning to my life
I wanna boogie down with you, brother
Boogie down with bassman
Win love on the grandslam
I'll be there waititng when you call.
Just step right into my heart
Come a little closer
Don't tell me that it's over
Make a brand new start
We can work it out just next to nothing
Work it out, work it out just next to nothing
With feeling, feeling, feeling, with feeling
We can work it out
Let me show what I can do,
I can be your kind of lover
We can work it out
Let me show what I can do,
I can be your kind of lover
I wanna be your kind of mother
Let's talk about loving right
Don't talk about doing wrong
Put a little bit of sense into your mind
We gotta talk it out man to man
Make each other understand
Right now a little happiness would be fine
Just step right into my heart
Come a little closer
Don't tell me that it's over
Make a brand new start
We can work it out just next to nothing
Work it out, work it out just next to nothing
With feeling, feeling, feeling, with feeling
We can work it out
Let me show what I can do, I can be your kind of lover
We can work it out
Let me show what I can do, I can be your kind of lover
Your kind of lover
Exercises In Free Love
In My Defence
In my defence, what is there to say ?
All the mistakes we've made must be faced today
It's not easy now, knowing where to start
While the world we love tears itself apart
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong ?
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between, with a fading dream
In my defence, what is there to say ?
We destroy the love, it's our way
We never listen enough, never face the truth
Then like a passing song, love is here
And then it's gone
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong ?
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between, with a fading dream
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong ?
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between, with a fading dream
Caught in between, with a fading dream
Caught in between, with a fading dream
Oh what on Earth, Oh what on Earth
How do I try
Do we live or die ?
Oh help me God.
Please help me !
Mr. Bad Guy
Let's go chasing rainbows in the sky
It's my invitation
Let's all take a trip on my ecstasy
I'm Mr. Bad Guy
Yes I'm everybody's Mr. Bad Guy
Can't you see I'm Mr. Mercury
Oh, spread your wings and fly away with me.
Your big daddy's got no place to stay

Mr. Bad Guy
Yes I'm everybody's Mr. Bad Guy
Can't you see I'm Mr. Mercury
Oh, spread your wings and fly away with me.

Mr. Bad Guy they're all afraid of me
It's the only way to be
That's my destiny
Mr. Bad Guy, Mr. Bad Guy, Bad Guy
It's the only way for me
It's my destiny
Mr. Bad Guy
Yes I'm everybody's Mr. Bad Guy
Can't you see this is my destiny
Oh, spread your wings and fly away with me.

Living On My Own
Sometimes I feel I'm gonna break down and cry (so lonely)
Nowhere to go, nothing to do with my time
I get lonely, so lonely, living on my own.
Sometimes I feel I'm always walking too fast (so lonely)
And everything is coming down on me, down on me, I go crazy
Oh so crazy - living on my own.
Dee do de de, dee do de de
I don't have no time for no monkeybusiness
Dee do de de, dee do de de
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, yeah
Got to be some good times ahead
Sometimes I feel nobody gives me no warning
Find my head is always up in the clouds in a dreamworld
It's not easy - living on my own, my own, my own
Dee do de de, dee do de de
I don't have no time for no monkeybusiness
Dee do de de, dee do de de
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, yeah
Got to be some good times ahead
repeat chorus
Love Kills
Love don't give compensation
Love don't pay no bills
Love don't give no indication
Love just won't stand still
Love kills
Thrills you through your heart
Love kills
Scars you from the start
It's just a living pastime
Ruining your heart line
Stay for a lifetime
Won't let you go
Cause love, love, love, won't leave you alone
Love won't take no reservation
Love is no square deal
Love won't give no justifications
It strikes like cold steel
Love kills
Drills you through your heart
Love kills
Scars you from the start
It's just a living pastime
Burning your life line
Gives you a hard time
Won't let you go
Cause love, love, love, won't leave you alone
Love can play with your emotions
An open invitation to your heart
Hey love kills
(repeat)
Love kills, love kills, love kills,
Love kills
Thrills you through your heart
Love kills
Scars you from the start
It's just a living pastime
Ruining your heart line
Won't let you go
Love kills
Drills you through your heart
Love kills
Tears you right apart
It won't let you go
It won't let you go
Love kills
Barcelona
I has this perfect dream
Un suenõ me envolviõ
This dream was me and you
Tal vez est s aqu¡
I want all the world to see
Un instinto me guiaba
A miracle sensation
My guide and inspiration
Now my dream is slowly coming true
The wind is a gentle breeze
El me hablõ de ti
The bells are ringing out
El canto vuela
They're calling us together
Guiding us forever
Wish my dream would never go away
¬Barcelona !
It was the first time that we met
¬Barcelona !
How can I forget
The moment that you stepped in the room
You took my breath away
¬Barcelona !
La müsica vibrõ
¬Barcelona !
Yella nos uniõ
And if god is willing
We will meet again
Someday
Let the songs begin
D‚jalo macer
Let the music play
Ahhhhhhh...
Make the voices sing
Nace un gran amor
Start the celebration
Ven a mi
¬And cry !
¬Grita !
Come alive
¬Viva !
And shake the foundations from the skies
Shaking all our lives
¬Barcelona !
Such a beautiful horizon
Like a jewel in the sun
Por ti ser‚ gaviota de tu bella mar
¬Barcelona !
Abre tus puertas al mundo
If god is willing
If god is willing
If god is willing
Friends to the end
¬Viva !
¬Barcelona !
