Paint your face and run around
Dance in silky satin gowns
Turn my full length mirror down
Oh you think you're safe and sound
But you know what I found
Base this lifetime on a lie
Which you then proceed to hide
Comes a time I can't decide
But don't you open up your eyes
To think it's time that you tried to see...
Your masquerade
And that's an awful game to play
It's just a masquerade
Making you the queen of diamonds honey
On the ace, of spades
Paint your face and run around
Dance in silky satin gowns
Turn my full length mirror down
Oh you think you're safe and sound
I thought you'd know I'd found...
It's just a masquerade
And that's an awful game to play
It's just a masquerade
Making you the queen of diamonds honey
On the ace, of spades
It's just a masquerade
It's just a masquerade
It's just a masquerade
It's just a masquerade
