Smoke And Mirrors by Gotye
Lyrics & Translation
English
You're a fraud and you know it
But it's too good to throw it all away
Anyone would do the same
You've got 'em going
And you're careful not to show it
Sometimes you even fool yourself a bit
It's like magic
But it's always been a smoke and mirrors game
Anyone would do the same
So now that you've arrived well you wonder
What is it that you've done to make the grade
And should you do the same?
(Is that too easy?)
Are you only trying to please them
(Will they see then?)
You're desperate to deliver
Anything that could give you
A sense of reassurance
When you look in the mirror
Such highs and lows
You put on quite a show
All these highs and lows
And you're never really sure
What you do it for
Well do you even want to know?
You put on quite a show
(Mother)
Are you watching?
Are you watching?
(Mother)
Are you watching?
(Mother)
You're a fraud and you know it
And every night and day you take the stage
And it always entertains
You're giving pleasure
And that's admirable, you tell yourself
And so you'd gladly sell yourself
To others
(Mother)
Are you watching?
(Mother)
Are you watching?
(Mother)
Are you watching?
(Mother)
Are you watching?
Such highs and lows
You put on quite a show
All these highs and lows
And you're never really sure
What you do it for
Well do you even want to know?
Yeah you put on quite a show

Smoke And Mirrors (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Eres un fraude y lo sabes
Pero es demasiado bueno para tirarlo todo
Cualquiera haría lo mismo
Los tienes enganchados
Y tienes cuidado de no mostrarlo
A veces incluso te engañas un poco
Es como magia
Pero siempre ha sido un juego de humo y espejos
Cualquiera haría lo mismo
Así que ahora que has llegado, te preguntas
¿Qué has hecho para alcanzar el nivel?
¿Y deberías hacer lo mismo?
(¿Es eso demasiado fácil?)
¿Solo intentas complacerlos?
(¿Lo verán entonces?)
Estás desesperado por entregar
Cualquier cosa que pueda darte
Una sensación de tranquilidad
Cuando te miras al espejo
Tantos altibajos
Montas un gran espectáculo
Todos estos altibajos
Y nunca estás realmente seguro
Para qué lo haces
Bueno, ¿quieres siquiera saberlo?
Montas un gran espectáculo
(Madre)
¿Estás mirando?
¿Estás mirando?
(Madre)
¿Estás mirando?
(Madre)
Eres un fraude y lo sabes
Y cada noche y día subes al escenario
Y siempre entretiene
Estás dando placer
Y eso es admirable, te dices a ti mismo
Y así te venderías con gusto
A otros
(Madre)
¿Estás mirando?
(Madre)
¿Estás mirando?
(Madre)
¿Estás mirando?
(Madre)
¿Estás mirando?
Tantos altibajos
Montas un gran espectáculo
Todos estos altibajos
Y nunca estás realmente seguro
Para qué lo haces
Bueno, ¿quieres siquiera saberlo?
Sí, montas un gran espectáculo
