david ogden stiers - things are not what they appear lyrics

Loading...

jester 1:
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

jester 2:
things are never what they seem
that will be this evening’s theme
amusing sights for your delight
perhaps a few to make you scream

ratcliffe:
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 “yay”!

crowd:
yay!

ratcliffe:
if a jugglers feat should be incomplete
he’s the one to greet with “nay”!
crowd:
nay!

ratcliffe:
if the fools we see should look like you and me
then before the night goes by
ask why, why, why, why, why
why?

jester 1:
things are not what they appear
and the finest proof’s right here

radcliffe:
how i regret when we first met
i believed my own worst fear

jester 2:
things are never what they seem
so in keeping with our theme

ratcliffe:
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
crowd:
he’s right, he’s right!

ratcliffe:
many don’t say what they mean

crowd:
he’s right, he’s right!

jester 1:
a powdered face is just the place

jester 2:
to conceal an ugly scheme

ratcliffe:
only one thing’s really clear
things are not what they appear!
