Lyrics
Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung
Welcome to the Grand illusion
Come on in and see what`s happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
Wishing secretly you were a star.
But don`t be fooled by the radio
The TV or the magazines
They show you photographs of how your life should be
But they`re just someone else`s fantasy
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because you never win the game
Just remember that it`s a Grand illusion
And deep inside we`re all the same.
We`re all the same...
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbors got it made
Just remember that it`s a Grand illusion
And deep inside we`re all the same.
We`re all the same...
America spells competition, join us in our blind ambition
Get yourself a brand new motor car
Someday soon we`ll stop to ponder what on Earth`s this spell we`re under
We made the grade and still we wonder who the hell we are
