Masquerading As Human
Words and music by The Duras Sisters

Masquerading as human I wear their hair and skin I walk the walk and talk the talk Trying hard to blend in Masquerading as human They never seem to see All the secrets, all the wonder All the magic here in me I go to a restaurant, people pass me by So wrapped up in their little lives they never even try I order steak and marmalade, the waitress heaves a sigh Yells, "Another special order," and she never bats an eye! Masquerading as human I wear their hair and skin I walk the walk and talk the talk Trying hard to blend in Masquerading as human They never seem to see All the secrets, all the wonder All the magic here in me There's a secret hiding place underneath the stair Where I keep my special makeup and my extra set of hair No one ever wonders why my closet has a key; No one ever wonders what the hell is wrong with me! Masquerading as human I wear their hair and skin I walk the walk and talk the talk Trying hard to blend in Masquerading as human They never seem to see All the secrets, all the wonder All the magic here in me What's beneath this shell I wear? I have never told Angel wings or dragon's breath or tentacles so cold If you never scratch the surface, you will never find the gold Mother Nature will not make you wise; she'll only make you old Masquerading as human I wear their hair and skin I walk the walk and talk the talk Trying hard to blend in Masquerading as human They never seem to see All the secrets, all the wonder All the magic here in me All the secrets, all the wonder All the magic here in me
