Chorus: Masquerade! Paper faces on parade Masquerade! Hide your face so the world will never find you Letras de cancionesMasquerade! Every face a different shade Masquerade! Look around, there's another mask behind you Flash of mauve Splash of puce Fool and king Ghoul and goose Green and black Queen and priest Trace of rouge Face of beast Faces! Take your turn, take a ride On the merry-go-round In an inhuman race Eye of gold Thigh of blue True is false Who is who? Curl of lip Swirl of gown Ace of hearts Face of clown Faces! Drink it in, drink it up 'Till you've drowned In the light In the sound But who can name the face? Masquerade! Grinning yellows, spinning reds Masquerade! Take your fill, let the spectacle astound you Masquerade! Burning glances, turning heads Masquerade! Stop and stare at the sea of smiles around you Masquerade! Seething shadows breathing lies Masquerade! You can fool any friend who ever knew you Masquerade! Leering satyrs, peering eyes Masquerade!
