Things Are Not What They Appear

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!
