People are actors
No one is truly real
They act and pretend and perform
They put on these plays at all times
To get ahead, to deceive
So impress me and dance for me
Keep the act going so I might be amused
So I might be fooled by your ridiculous insincerity
You do not dupe me with you artificiality
I do not need to watch your attempt at entertainment
I scoff at your attempt at trickery
And I do not need the real you
Because the real you does not exist
You do not know how to be anything but an actor
So enjoy the world as your stage
And take a bow at the end of your act
But be prepared when there is no applause
