Lyrics - The Show Must Go On by Three Dog Night

(
Sayer /
Courtney)
Baby, although
I chose this lonely life
It seems it's stranglin' me now
All the wild men, big cigars, gigantic car
They're all laughin' at the lie
Oh,
I've been used
Ooo-oo-oo-oo
I've been a fool
Oh, what a fool
I broke all the rules
Oh, yeah
But
I must let the show go on
Baby, there's an enormous crowd of people
They're all after my blood
I wish maybe they'd tear down the walls of this theater
Let me out, let me out
Oh,
I'm so blind
Oh,
I'm blind
I wasted time
Wasted, wasted, wasted time
Walkin' on the wire, high wire
But
I must let the show go on
Oh,
I'm so blind
Oh,
I'm blind
I wasted time
Wasted, wasted, all too much time
Walkin' on the wire, high wire
But
I must let the show go on
Baby,
I wish you'd help me escape
Help me get away
Leave me outside my address
Far away from this masquerade'
Cause
I've been blind
Oh, so blind
I wasted time
Wasted, wasted, all too much time
Walkin' on the wire, high wire
But
I must let the show go.&
I must let the show go..
I must let the show go on
