Written:Gerry Deveaux/Terry Britten One day while I was searching For what I'll never find She walked into my story Said she could change my mind This is the final offer She said to make it quick Don't lose out on this wonder So I had to place my bet Welcome to the picture show Watching your life Never know which way to go It might not be right So you better be strong What kind of circus is this? What kind of fools are we? When is the final curtain? What can I do to set me free? Welcome to the real world You better be strong Never know which way to go It might end up wrong So you better be strong Too many games we have to play They always change the rules You and me just trying to get along What can I do? Got to be strong She walked into my daydream She told me how it had to be Welcome to the picture show Watching your life Never know which way to go It might not be right Welcome to the real world You got to be strong Never know which way to go It might end up wrong Welcome to the picture show It might end up wrong So you better be strong You got to be strong You better be strong
