[00:14.12]If you live around here, you need cash in the bank.

[00:17.55]'Cos the houses 'round here are all flashy and swank.

[00:20.87]An' the front bit is what's called a facade!

[00:27.66]All the people 'round here are as posh as can be.

[00:30.94]You won't see 'em hob-nobbin' with rubbish like me.

[00:34.42]It's the snob bit, also called a facade!

[00:41.53]Every day people in their own sweet way

[00:46.96]Like to add a coat of paint and be what they ain't!

[00:53.76]That's how their little game is played

[00:57.69]Livin' out their masquerade

[01:00.91]Gettin' rich an' gettin' laid!

[01:03.75]Who'd want to trade?

[01:08.38]But there's one thing I know an' I know it for sure

[01:11.53]This disease that they've got has got no ready cure.

[01:14.95]An' I'm certain life is terribly hard

[01:20.88]When yer life's a facade!

[01:23.87]

[01:25.62]Every night here on house or another is a fun house

[01:29.14]'Cos of someone givin' a party as you see, Sir!

[01:32.40]This one here tonight is rather special - am I right?

[01:35.08]It's the betrothal of Sir Danvers' daughter, Lisa!

[01:38.91]Sir Danvers Carew is a good man

[01:42.10]They call him "La creme de la creme".

[01:45.79]Whatever that means, he's a bloody sight better than them!

[01:52.82]Nearly everyone you meet

[01:54.26]when walking down a London street

[01:56.05]Pretends to be a pillar of society.

[01:59.33]A model of propriety, sobriety and piety

[02:02.58]Who's never even heard of notoriety!

[02:05.99]The ladies an' gents here before you

[02:09.58]Which none of 'em ever admits

[02:12.81]May have saintly looks, but they're sinners an' crooks

[02:16.36]Hypocrites!

[02:19.37]If you live around here you need lots of panache.

[02:22.96]If you live in town, dear, then you must cut a dash.

[02:26.45]'Tisn't hard, dear, to create a facade!

[02:33.02]You must seem to be rich and have money to burn.

[02:36.40]Even though it's a *****, spending more than you earn.

[02:39.76]That's the game here and the name is facade!

[02:46.79]One or two might look kinda well-to-do.

[02:52.57]But I betcha precious few have paid for their boots!

[02:59.35]I'm inclined to think half mankind thinks the other half is blind.

[03:06.46]Wouldn't be surprised to find they're all in cahoots!

[03:13.86]At the end of the day they don't mean what they say

[03:17.12]They don't say what they mean, they don't ever come clean.

[03:20.61]An' the answer is it's all a facade!

[03:27.43]Call a walk "Promenade", call a street "Boulevard"

[03:30.62]Grease yer hair with "Pomade"

[03:31.99]you'll be held in regard.

[03:34.12]An' I betcha if you stay on your guard

[03:40.34]They'll all say you're a "Card".

[03:43.32]People love the facade.

[03:46.93]What's behind the facade?

[03:51.12]Look behind...the facade!
