He's been there a hundred times before,  
 Looking for some pretty high class fool to play with  
 Back in his place when he pours out the wine  
 And the crystal snowflakes stand in line -  
 She won't ever find a faster way to heaven.  
  
 You can find him any night  
 Standing in the upstage light,  
 Waiting for some easy act to follow -  
 Watch him move in perfect time  
 Memorising all his lines  
 Roll up! Roll up! see the Great Pretender  
  
 Dinner party, table for two -  
 Video turns to midnight blue,  
 He says "do you like to do it this way?"  
 Black satin sheets edged in guilt,  
 Whispered lies underneath the quilt -  
 He'll do anything a woman wants,  
 'cos he's built for pleasure  
  
 You can find him etc  
  
 All night, all night  
 We last, all night
