See him walking down the street All full of swagger He's got the world at his feet He's all the matters It came so easy Since he was born The son of privilege And beyond scorn... I'm just a pretender In his world And he can never see me I'm no more than just A lowly bird... See him takes just what he wants By simply grabbing Dominating with his taunts And constant bragging It's been so easy To fool them all Into believing He's divinely called... He's the great contender I'm just a pretender In his world He can never see me I'm no more than just A lowly bird... He's the great pretender He's the great pretender He's the great pretender... He's the great pretender He's the great pretender He's the great pretender... See him walking up that hill All cloak and dagger He's not prepared for his defeat The truth it matters It won't be easy But he must fall The tides are turning We hear the call... He's the great pretender We will not surrender To his world He may never see us Time will give him just what he deserves... He's the great pretender He's the great pretender He's the great pretender... He's the great pretender He's the great pretender He's the great pretender...
