[ti:MASQUERADE]
[ar:andrew lloyd webber]
[00:43.75] Masquerade!
[00:45.80] Paper faces on parade
[00:48.00] Masquerade!
[00:49.60] Hide your face,
[00:50.35] so the world will
[00:51.65] never find you!
[00:54.50] Masquerade!
[00:56.70] Every face a different shade
[00:58.12] Masquerade!
[01:00.42] Look around
[01:01.32] there's another
[01:02.42] mask behind you!
[01:04.57] Flash of mauve
[01:05.22] Splash of puce
[01:06.07] Fool and king
[01:06.92] Ghoul and goose
[01:07.62] Green and black
[01:08.42] Queen and priest
[01:09.12] Trace of rouge
[01:09.92] Face of beast
[01:11.12] Faces
[01:11.97] Take your turn,take a ride
[01:14.27] on the merry-go-round
[01:16.09] in an inhuman race
[01:17.59] Eye of gold
[01:18.14] Thigh of blue
[01:18.59] True is false
[01:19.49] Who is who?
[01:20.14] Curl of lip
[01:20.79] Swirl of gown
[01:21.39] Ace of hearts
[01:22.04] Face of clown
[01:23.39] Faces
[01:24.29] Drink it in,drink it up,
[01:26.04] till you've drowned
[01:27.09] in the light
[01:27.69] in the sound
[01:30.47] Masquerade!
[01:32.32] Grinning yellows,
[01:33.71] spinning reds
[01:34.76] Masquerade!
[01:36.26] Take your fill
[01:37.21] let the spectacle
[01:38.31] astound you!
[01:41.21] Masquerade!
[01:43.31] Burning glances,
[01:44.11] turning heads
[01:45.57] Masquerade!
[01:47.22] Stop and stare
[01:48.12] at the sea of smiles
[01:50.32] around you!
[01:52.62] Masquerade!
[01:54.62] Seething shadows
[01:55.22] breathing lies
[01:56.87] Masquerade!
[01:58.47] You can fool
[01:59.47] any friend who
[02:00.57] ever knew you!
[02:03.54] Masquerade!
[02:05.89] Leering satyrs,
[02:06.44] peering eyes
[02:07.44] Masquerade!
[02:09.39] Run and hide
[02:10.44] but a face will
[02:11.79] still pursue you!
