Put on some make-up to cover the bruises

Put on a wig to cover the bald spots

Put on long sleeves to cover the scars

Put on those shoes pretending they're mine

Put on a show so no one will indicate bad entertainment

Put on an act so they think you are what you're not.

If measles were nice
And lies weren't lies.
Life would be a real delight
But nothing would be right
For i wouldn't be I

If earth was heaven and
False was true and
Past was present
If there wasn't any tense
For i would be in suspense
For a long pretense
You wouldn't be you

If fear was hope
The globe was square dirt was clean
Tears were joy
Things wouldn't be fair
We'd all be in despair
For if i was there
We'd never be we.
