The Show Must Go On Lyrics By Three Dog Night

    baby although i chose this lonely life
    it seems it’s strangling me now
    all the wild men big cigars gigantic cars
    they’re all laughing at me now

    oh i’ve been used ooh used ooh used
    i’ve been a fool oh what a fool oh what a fool
    i broke all the rules oh yeah all the rules
    but i must let the show go on

    baby there’s an enormous crowd of people
    they’re all after my blood
    i wish maybe they’d tear down the walls of this theater
    let me out let me out

    oh i’m so blind oh i’m blind oh so blind
    i wasted time wasted wasted wasted time wasted time
    walking on a wire high wire high high wire
    but i must let the show go on

    oh i’m so blind oh i’m blind oh so blind
    i wasted time wasted wasted all too much time wasted time
    walking on a wire high wire high high wire
    but i must let the show go on

    baby i wish you’d help me escape
    help me get away
    hoo ooh leave me outside my address hoo ooh
    far away from this hoo ooh masquerade hoo ooh

    ’cause i’ve been blind oh so blind
    i wasted time wasted wasted all too much time
    walking on a wire high wire
    but i must let the show go
    i must let the show go
    i must let the show go on
