Lyrics for Song: Heavy Disguise
Lyrics for Album: The Collection [2002]



Strawbs - Heavy Disguise



Crowded afternoon and there's not enough room in the city today

The people assembled to hear what resembled evangelists say

Some came just to see them for a laugh

Others to be free

Fools must pretend to be wise

We've a faith that we use as a heavy disguise.



Tears from the crowd with men crying aloud or just ringing their hands

The love in their hearts at this joining of people from far away lands

I'd so many questions I could ask

I wanted to be free

Fools must pretend to be wise

We've a faith that we use as a heavy disguise.



Cheers from the crowd for a much-loved constituent lately arrived

Here's to the soul of the man who takes toll for just staying alive

Can't ignore the feeling in the air

Glad that I was there

Fools must pretend to be wise

We've a faith that we use as a heavy disguise.



Evening drew on with a change of opinion from left wing and right

And North accused South who were left little doubt that they needed to fight

I cannot begin to understand

The suffering tonight

Fools must pretend to be wise

We've a faith that we use as a heavy disguise.
