Lyrics Fake It 'Til You Make It - Rick Springfield

You and me we could be kings
Or smoke and shadows in the moonlight
If we don't fly on fatal wings
Then we're the village in the bomb site
There is no handbook for all you want to do
Better take a real good look, 'cause it's all up to you

You got to fake it 'til you make it
Don't surrender, don't bow
Yeah, they can shake it but can't break it
But there's no holier vow
You're standing there so naked
No better time than right now
You got to fake it 'til you make it
Be a pretender, that's how

You got so many idle dreams (idle dreams)
Inside a life that's helter-skelter (helter-skelter)
It only wakes you when it screams (ah-ah)
Spend all your time just seeking shelter (seeking shelter)
There's no one to follow, no rules in the game
If the verdict rings hollow, there's no one else to blame

You got to fake it 'til you make it
Don't surrender, don't bow
Yeah, they can shake it but can't break it
But there's no holier vow
You're standing there so naked
No better time than right now
You got to fake it 'til you make it
Be a pretender, that's how

Yeah, you got to dream, you got to
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream

Fake it 'til you make it
Don't surrender, don't bow
Yeah, they can shake it but can't break it
But there's no holier vow
You're standing there so naked
No better time than right now
You got to fake it 'til you make it
Be a pretender, that's how

You got to fake it 'til you make it
Don't surrender don't bow
Yeah, they can shake it but can't break it
But there's no holier vow
You're standing there so naked
No better time than right now
You got to fake it 'til you make it
Be a pretender, that's how
You got to fake it

Forget it man and get with the countdown
Check this square world and blast up for kicks Vail
