Styx- The grand illusion + lyrics

Styx- The grand illusion

Welcome to the grand illusion
Come on in and see whats happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
Wishing secretly you were a star.

But dont be fooled by the radio
The tv or the magazines
They show you photographs of how your life should be
But theyre just someone elses fantasy
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because you never win the game
Just remember that its a grand illusion
And deep inside were all the same.
Were all the same...

So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbors got it made
Just remember that its a grand illusion
And deep inside were all the same.
Were all the same...

America spells competition, join us in our blind ambition
Get yourself a brand new motor car
Someday soon well stop to ponder what on earths this spell were under
We made the grade and still we wonder who the hell we are
All rights go to Styx

Good grief! The comments here, for the most part, seem unrelated to this classic, awesome song.

Yes, I was in my prime when this was recorded, but geeze! It's message is more relevant today than it was back then. Turn the sound off...read the lyrics. Then add the sound (most only made today with technology rather than SKILL). Do that, seriously, and walk away with a least a minor shift in your mindset to the plus side (if you pay attention).

Have you ever heard a song explain life that well? I think that song was way ahead of its time in diversity, long live real music!
