The Great Pretender (Queen)
Featuring: Vocal (Lincoln Loud), Instruments/Background (Clyde, Rusty, Liam, Zach, Moon Goats: Luna, Sam, Mazzy, Sully)
Location: Loud-Verse Earth-LMP1 (Prime Loud Music Parody World, my HC)
Guests: Ronnie, Sid, Stella, Girl Jordan, Chloe, Penelope, Polly Pain, Giggles, Haiku, Tabby
AN: Okay, at first I thought this should be on NakaR's AU. But I went on and did this instead since the Valentine's Routine should have been in this Loud-Verse instead. Also this is a promotion to the Japanese animation show named like the song (THE GREAT PRETENDER). A story about a con artist/swindler that made a wrong move on a foreigner and now caught in a series of chain reactions where he now works to swindle on corrupt politicians, Hollywood artists and evil people with statures. The song is played at the ending theme of the show and the plot is set from Japan to Los Angeles, California. It's really interesting on how the characters goes and how the plot progresses. The song itself is a heartbreak song of a man still hung up on an ex-lover and fakes his life of happiness when in truth he's still grieving on the heartache and imagine things as if he owns the world. This was originally from "The Platters" but popularized by Freddie Mercury, the main vocalist of the band; Queen. Without further ado, leave a like, review/request, follow and I hope you enjoy. God Bless, Stay Safe and Peace/Shalom!
-Music Start-
[Verse 1: Lincoln and (Background - Clyde, Rusty, Liam, Zach)]
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender (Woo-woo)
Pretending I'm doing well (Woo-woo)
My need is such I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no one can tell
[Verse 2: Lincoln and (Background - Clyde, Rusty, Liam, Zach)]
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender (woo-woo)
Adrift in a world of my own (woo-woo)
I play the game but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone
[Bridge: Lincoln Loud]
Too real is this feeling of make-believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
[Verse 3: Lincoln and (Background - Clyde, Rusty, Liam, Zach)]
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender (Woo-woo)
Just laughing and smile like a clown (Woo-woo)
I seem to be what I'm not (You see)
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
[Bridge: Lincoln with Background - Clyde, Rusty, Liam, Zach]
Yeah! Ooh-ooh!
Too real when I feel
What my heart can't conceal, oh
[Verse 4: Lincoln with Background - Clyde, Rusty, Liam, Zach]
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and smile like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not, you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
[Outro:Lincoln with Background - Clyde, Rusty, Liam, Zach]
Pretending that you're…
Pretending that you're still around
-Music Fades to end-
Lincoln: I can't believe this plan worked!
Clyde: We still have until the 20th of February. Or the 21st if we have more songs to fill.
Stella: I love that one. But why though? Why this song?
Lincoln: My sisters think I better suit like this whenever it comes to girl talks. Basically, I have to put up with this facade. But to be honest, if you fake it too much, it slowly becomes me. Fake it till you make it.
Sid: What does that mean?
Lincoln: It means, if you lie and pretend too much, it becomes a reality and truth. It rarely ever the case but it can be true too.
Haiku: Such byword tends to be forgotten. People deceive themselves until it becomes their true selves.
Lincoln: Exactly. Remember the Sadie Hawkins, and I have to pretend to be enjoying with you girls. Then eventually I did enjoy my time with you girls and I even brought my friends for this to work.
Tabby: And because of that, our friendship circle expanded!
Liam: Yup!
Jordan: So, what's next in our list?
Lincoln: Another Queen song. I'm not telling though. It's gonna be a surprise.
-END: (The Valentine's Routine until February 20-21)-
AN: So, I chose this Queen song since it's a heartbreak song and the ending theme song for the anime (THE GREAT PRETENDER). Go watch the anime if you wanna see the comedy gold series (fair warning: R-18 for substance and nudes). Speaking of which, I think I'll have this idea for sale.
Fanfic 4 sale: Loud PRETENDERS (Lincoln becomes a swindler after losing his circle of trust. Now he wanders California to look for someone to trick, only to get tricked into a scheme that targets corrupted personas like narcotic smugglers, Hollywood icons, lawless politicians and traffickers, But then even his family are looking for him to go back in being the good, honest boy he once were. What will the boy do?)
