GOTYE lyrics : "Smoke and Mirrors"

You're a fraud and you know it
But it's too good to throw it all away
Anyone would do the same

You've got 'em going
And you're careful not to show it
Sometimes you even fool yourself a bit

It's like magic
But it's always been a smoke and mirrors game
Anyone would do the same


So now that you've arrived, well you wonder
What is it that you've done to make the grade?

And should you do the same?
(Is that too easy?)
Are you only trying to please them?

Will they see then
You're desperate to deliver
Anything that could give you

A sense of reassurance
When you look in the mirror


Such highs and lows
You put on quite a show
All these highs and lows

And you're never really sure
What you do it for
Well do you even want to know?

You put on quite a show

Mother, are you watching?

Are you watching?
Mother, are you watching?
Mother

Mother

You're a fraud and you know it

And every night and day you take the stage
And it always entertains
You're giving pleasure

And that's admirable you tell yourself
And so you'd gladly sell yourself to others


Mother, are you watching?
Mother, are you watching?
Mother, are you watching?

Mother, are you watching?
Are you watching?


Such highs and lows
You put on quite a show
All these highs and lows

And you're never really sure
What you do it for
Well do you even want to know?

You put on quite a show
