| Oh yes, I'm the great pretender Pretending I'm doing well My need is such I pretend too much | |
| I'm lonely but no one can tell Oh yes, I'm the great pretender Pretending I'm doing well | |
| you I'm the great pretender Adrift in a world of our own We play the game, but to our real shame Greatness has left us to dream all alone Too real is this feeling of misbelief Too real when I feel what our hearts can't conceal Oh yes, | |
| we're the great pretenders Just laughing and we're going down We seem to be what we're not. | |
| You'll see. | |
| We're wearing our hearts like a bow and crown. | |
| Pretending greatness is around Too real when we feel what our heart can't conceal | |
| Oh yes, we're the great pretenders. | |
| Just laughing and burgling down. | |
| We seem to be what we're not. | |
| You see, we're wearing our pride like a fallen crown. | |
| Pretending that there's greatness. I mean where is this greatness? | |
| I hate this. | |
| I mean, Donald Trump, during his campaign, kept on saying, we don't win anymore. | |
| And now he's saying, we're winning. | |
| We're winning. Well, how are we winning? | |
| Are we winning by starving people in Venezuela for democracy so we can steal the oil? | |
| Are we winning in Syria and Iran so that a foreign country can expand its already dubious borders? | |
| I mean, that's not winning. | |
| That's sinning. All right? | |
| That's doing wrong. | |
| And that is not greatness. | |
| Now, America is on a decline. | |
| We can stop it. | |
| But the decline is politically, culturally. | |
| All we got culturally is football games, but we don't have anything that unites us as a people. | |
| And we are falling morally. | |
| Now the integral core of morality is the family. | |
| And the family is being under attack. | |
| I grew up in a family. | |
| I grew up in a Jewish family. | |
| But there in this family we learned obligation. | |
| We learned responsibility. | |
| And that's what true love is really all about. | |
| And that's what greatness is. | |
| Obligation. Responsibility. | |
| And it's more than economic prosperity. | |
| It's integrity. | |
| It's in righteousness. Now, I travel all across the country holding up the Holy Cross. | |
| I meet a lot of great people. | |
| I think we've got a chance to make this country great. | |
| Because greatness begins with you and me. | |
| I want to be great. | |
| I want to be great morally. |
