Testo Pretender

If I asked you, would you tell me
What you really, think about me,
Would you make up, something charming,
Or would you be straight?
(And just give it all up)
People they say, anything you want to hear
(They just lay it all out)
In such a way, though the meaning is unclear
But I'm a pretender. And I am an actor.
Though my confession don't mean I repent a thing.
Cause it don't mean nothing. Cause it don't mean nothing.
And I'm gonna lose myself in all the lies I spin.

(Do, do do do....)

Would you hold it, all against me,
If I want it, oh so badly,
That I make up, a few stories,
That are less than true.
(Just to try them all out.)
Well I could admit, we haven't made it all that far.
(I been working so hard.) But I can't resist, cause darling I'm gonna be a star.

Cause I'm a pretender. And I am a rock star.
Though my confession don't mean I repent a thing.
Cause it don't mean nothing. Cause it don't mean nothing.
And I'm gonna lose myself in all the lies I spin.

And when it all goes down, I'll be right,
And I'll still think of you as they whisk me all around the world.
I'll be gone, but I'll be right.
But I'm a pretender, but not for much longer.
Cause one of these days my life will catch up to my lies.
Cause they don't mean nothing. Cause they don't mean nothing.
And we're gonna do this thing and there's no compromise.
(All the lies I spin...)

But I'm a pretender. And I am an actor.
Though my confession don't mean I repent a thing.
Cause it don't mean nothing. Cause it don't mean nothing.
And I'm gonna lose myself in all the lies I spin.

(Do, do do do....)
