Things are not what they appear
As tonight will make quite clear
But what is real will be revealed
I can feel the moment's near
Things are never what they seem
That will be this evening's theme
A music sights for your delight
perhaps a few to make you scream
You'll be surprised to see whose disguise
Is the cleverest one of the lot
After our show the whole world will know
Who's is pretending to be what they're not
If a jester's grin or a dancer's spin
Should be pleasing, please say "Yea"!
Yea!
If a jugglers feat should be incomplete
He's the one to greet with "Nay"!
Nay!
If the fools we see should look like you and me
Then before the night goes by
Ask why, why, why, why, why,
Why?
Things are not what they appear
And the finest proof's right here
How I regret when we first meet
I believed my own worst fear
Things are never what they seem
So in keeping with our theme
A change of hair, a dress to wear
And our nightmare's now a dream
Clueless and wild
I saw this sweet child
As a danger to one and to all
Savage, I thought
What could Rolfe have brought?
Now I see she's the belle of the ball
Things are never what they seem
He's right, he's right!
Many don't say what they mean
He's right, he's right!
A powered face is just the place
To hide an ugly scheme
Only one thing's really clear
Things are not what they appear!
