24 November 1992
Alternative Version of Freddie Mercury Album
Oh yes I'm the great pretender (oooh oooh)
Pretending I'm doing well (oooh oooh)
My need is such, I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no-one can tell
Oh yes I'm the great pretender (oooh oooh)
Adrift in a world of my own (oooh oooh) I play the game, but to my real
shame
You've left me to dream all alone
Too real is this feeling of make believe (make believe)
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Ooh oh yes I'm the great pretender (oooh oooh)
Just laughing and gay like a clown (oooh oooh)
I seem to be what I'm not (you see)
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around, yeah oooh hoo
Too real (real) when I feel (feel) what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown (oooh oooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're, pretending that you're still around
You're so beautiful, you just lay it on me
Foxy lady you really are the greatest show in town
You want to play, you wanna eat your cake and have it your way
You've got it easy and you don't give a damn
Foolin' around, you just keep foolin' around with me
Keep on foolin' around with me baby
Walking down the street, people watching closely
Such a tease, you can turn on any man you want
You masquerade, you're the catch of the season every night and day
You you you don't have any time for me
You just keep foolin' around with me - yes you do that to me
Fooling around - everywhere I go you're the only only only sexy lady
Fooling around, all you do is keep me hanging around
You're really so hard to please
You've gotta really watch that baby! (yeah yeah)
You just you just, fooling around with me
You just you just, fooling around with me
You keep fooling, you keep fooling
Fooling...
Want to play, but you always want it all your own way
You've got it easy but you don't give a damn
Fooling around, you just keep fooling around with me
Just keep fooling around with me, yeah
I'm a fool fool fool fool for you baby, keep fooling around (yeah yeah)
I'm a fool fool fool for you sexy baby, keep fooling around
I'm a fool fool fool fool for you baby, keep fooling around
Time waits for nobody, time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
We might as well be deaf and dumb and blind
I know that sounds unkind
But it seems to me we've not listened to
Or spoken about it at all
The fact that time is running out for us all
Time waits for nobody, time waits for no-one
We've got to build this world together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Because time, it waits for nobody
You don't need me to tell you what's gone wrong (gone wrong gone wrong)
You know what's going on
But it seems to me we've not cared enough
Or confided in each other at all (confided in each other at all) It seems that
we've all got our backs against the wall
(Time) Time waits for nobody
(Time) Waits for no-one
We've got to trust in one another
Or there'll be no more future at all
(Time) Yeah, time waits for nobody
No no, time don't wait for no-one
Let's learn to be friends with one another
Or there'll be no more future at all
Time (time) time (time) waits for nobody, waits for nobody
Time time time time waits for nobody at all
Time waits for nobody, yeah
Time don't wait, waits for no-one
Let us free this world for ever and build a brand new future for us all
Time waits for nobody nobody nobody, for no-one
Now you say you're leaving me, I just can't believe it's true
You're my kind of lover
Wanna little bit of feeling, add a little bit of meaning to my life
I wanna little bit of feeling, a little bit of sunshine to my life
I wanna be your kind of lover
Give a little bit of feeling, just a little bit of feeling
Add a little bit of meaning to my life
I wanna boogie down with you, brother
Boogie down with bassman, win love on the grandslam
I'll be there waiting when you call
Just step right into my heart
Come a little closer, don't tell me that it's over
Make a brand new start
We can work it out just next to nothing (your kind of lover)
Work it out, work it out just next to nothing
With feeling, feeling, feeling, with feeling We can work it out, let me show
what I can do
I can be your kind of lover
We can work it out (work it out), let me show what I can do
I can be your kind of lover
I wanna be your kind of mother, let's talk about loving right
Don't talk about doing wrong, put a little bit of sense into your mind
We gotta talk it out man to man
Make each other understand, right now a little happiness would be fine
Just step right into my heart
Come a little closer, don't tell me that it's over
Make a brand new start, we can work it out just next to nothing
Work it out, work it out just next to nothing
With feeling, feeling, feeling, with feeling
We can work it out, let me show what I can do, I can be your kind of lover
We can work it out, let me show what I can do, I can be your kind of lover
Hey, your kind of lover
Your kind of lover, your kind of lover
In my defence what is there to say
All the mistakes we made must be faced today
It's not easy now knowing where to start
While the world we love tears itself apart
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between, with a fading dream
In my defence what is there to say
We destroy the love, it's our way
We never listen enough, never face the truth
Then like a passing song, love is here and then it's gone
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between, with a fading dream
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
I'm just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between, with a fading dream
Caught in between, with a fading dream
Caught in between, with a fading dream
Oh what on earth, oh what on earth
How do I try, do we live or die
Oh help me God, please help me
Let's go chasing rainbows in the sky
It's my invitation
Let's all take a trip on my ecstasy
I'm Mr bad guy, yes I'm everybody's Mr bad guy
Can't you see I'm Mr Mercury
Oh, spread your wings and fly away with me
Your big daddy's got no place to stay
Bad communication
I feel like the President of the USA
Mr bad guy, yes I'm everybody's Mr bad guy
Can't you see I'm Mr Mercury
Oh, spread your wings and fly away with me
I'm Mr bad guy, they're all afraid of me
I can ruin people's lives
Mr bad guy, they're all afraid of me
It's the only way to be
That's my destiny
Mr bad guy, Mr bad guy, bad guy
It's the only way for me
It's my destiny, oh yeah
Mr bad guy, yes I'm everybody's Mr bad guy
Can't you see this is my destiny
Oh, spread your wings and fly away with me
